Backflow Prevention Services

What is Backflow?

What is backflow, you may ask? Most homeowners don't know the term backflow until they experience a problem. The main job of a plumber is to protect your water systems. There are two main water systems plumbers service: clean water and wastewater. It is critical for wastewater and clean water to remain totally separate for the health and safety of your family and our community.

Backflow occurs when unclean water flows backward into a clean water system. For example, let's say you have a toilet bowl cleaner that turns the water blue, if you then get blue water from a faucet, you have a backflow issue.

Backflow prevention is critical because it can cause a hazardous water situation.

All commercial properties require backflow prevention systems. Most irrigation and sprinkler systems have a backflow preventer in place.

Keeping Your Water Systems Safe

Whenever water becomes stagnant on the ground it can become contaminated or unclean. The water flowing from a sprinkler head or irrigation system is from a clean water source. Backflow prevention systems are installed to keep the ground water from backing up into the clean water system used in the sprinkler pipes.
