Backflow Prevention Services
What Is Backflow Testing?
Backflow happens when water flows in the wrong direction, which can allow contaminants to enter your drinking water. Backflow preventers are installed to stop this from happening. Annual testing ensures the device is working correctly and protecting your water supply.
Backflow testing is performed by a certified technician who checks the valves and internal components of the device to make sure it is functioning properly. If the device isn’t working as it should, contaminated water could potentially enter your plumbing system. Regular testing helps ensure your backflow preventer continues doing its job — keeping your water safe and meeting local testing requirements for homes and businesses.
Why Backflow Testing Matters?

We purchased a new home on Torch and Tyler took the time to fully explain the various systems to us (AC, boiler, radiant heating, etc.). He was both courteous and professional. Thanks Tyler!

There was an issue with our septic pump that was replaced a couple years ago. It was frustrating that the pump only lasted two years but Joshua was able to diagnose the problem and fix it quickly. The pump was covered under warranty but not the labor.
