What Is Backflow?

Backflow occurs when contaminated water flows in reverse into your clean water supply, which poses a serious health risk. This can happen due to changes in pressure within your plumbing system, often caused by backpressure or back siphonage.

Why Prevention Matters

Backflow prevention is not just a safety measure; it’s a legal requirement. Municipal and provincial regulations mandate the use of certified devices to protect potable water systems from contamination. Whether you're a homeowner, business owner, or property manager, ensuring your system is compliant is essential.

Our services include:

  • Certified Testing: We perform annual testing to ensure your backflow devices are functioning properly and meet all regulatory standards.

  • Professional Installation: Our licensed technicians install approved backflow prevention assemblies tailored to your system’s needs.

  • System Surveys: We conduct thorough cross-connection surveys to identify potential risks and recommend solutions.

  • Ongoing Maintenance: Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your devices and keeps your system in full compliance.
