Backflow Inspection, Maintenance & Repair
ADR Plumbing offers inspection, maintenance, and repair of backflow prevention devices. These devices are installed in plumbing systems to prevent contaminated water from flowing backward into the clean water supply. Backflow can occur due to backpressure, potentially introducing pollutants or hazardous substances into water systems.
Backflow Testing Steps
• Shutting off water downstream of the device.
• Attaching test gauges to device test ports.
• Measuring pressure differentials & check relief valves are working properly.
• Recording results in a report
Backflow Servicing
Servicing includes maintenance, cleaning, repair, or replacement of parts in the backflow system to restore it to proper working condition. It involves cleaning internal components, replacing worn or faulty parts, reassembling and retesting the device & updating compliance records
Why It’s Important
• Protects drinking water from contamination
• Ensures compliance with local plumbing and health codes
• Required annually or semi-annually in many jurisdictions
• Prevents legal or financial penalties for non-compliance
