The Importance of Backflow Prevention

Backflow prevention is a crucial component of some home plumbing systems that’s designed to safeguard the freshwater supply from contamination. It involves the installation of specialized devices that prevent the reverse flow of water, which could potentially allow contaminated wastewater to enter the clean water supply. This reverse of water flow can occur because of changes in water pressure that either pull or push the water the wrong direction. A backflow preventer uses a check-valve that closes if the water starts to flow the wrong direction.

Do You Need Backflow Prevention?

Not all homes require backflow prevention, only those that have a cross-connection between the freshwater and wastewater lines. Homes with irrigation systems or indoor fire sprinklers will need to have backflow preventers in place. Your local municipality will notify you when you need to have backflow prevention testing. You can then contact Edelman Heating, Cooling, Plumbing, Electric & Solar for this service. We can take care of any necessary backflow prevention repairs or replacements as well.
