Backflow Testing & Inspection to Keep Your Water Supply Protected

What Is a Backflow Preventer?

A backflow preventer is a device that cuts off the flow of water to a particular branch of your plumbing system should the water ever start to flow backward in the direction it came from. Preserving this gap helps prevent the main water supply from being contaminated, and that makes them vital in a number of situations. Should your property need a new backflow preventer or your current preventer serviced, turn to Bel-O Cooling & Heating for a job done right.

Because these devices are generally intricate and even small problems can lead to serious issues or even a total failure, a backflow prevention system is something that should only be installed by a plumber. Not only does your new system need to be able to perform when called upon, but it needs to be able to do so with confidence and prevent leakage that could lead to potentially serious water contamination. This is particularly important for properties where reclaimed septic water could come in contact with a water line that carries fresh water, including homes that fall into this description.

Importance of Regular Backflow Testing

Regular backflow testing is essential to ensure the safety and quality of your water supply. A backflow preventer is a device that prevents contaminated water from flowing back into the clean water supply. Without proper testing and maintenance, backflow preventers can malfunction, putting your water supply at risk of contamination.

Benefits of regular backflow testing include:

  • Protecting your health and safety
  • Preventing waterborne diseases
  • Compliance with local regulations
  • Peace of mind knowing your water is safe

Our expert technicians at Bel-O Cooling & Heating are trained to perform thorough backflow testing to ensure the integrity of your water supply.
