If you have any irrigation system installed, you may be required to have a backflow prevention device. That’s because there’s a potential for pooling water contaminated with chemicals and dirt to be sucked into the mains water supply due to pressure differences that may occur from time to time.
Commercial facilities such as car washes are also required to install backflow preventers to ensure that their wastewater doesn’t end up in the public water supply.
Annual backflow prevention testing is often required for commercial spaces and apartment blocks. It’s important to have a backflow preventer tested even if your municipality or city doesn’t require annual testing for residential homes. Defective backflow devices can also result in other problems such as low water pressure if the valve is not opening correctly.
