Why Backflow Testing Matters

Backflow preventers protect your potable water supply from contamination. Annual testing ensures they're working properly.

💧

Protect Your Water Supply

Backflow preventers stop contaminated water from flowing backward into your clean water supply. A failed device can allow chemicals, bacteria, or other hazardous substances into your building's drinking water.

📋

Meet DEP Requirements

NYC DEP requires annual testing of all backflow prevention devices. Test results must be submitted to the city, and non-compliance can result in violations and potential water service interruption.

⚠️

Avoid Costly Violations

Failing to test or file can result in DEP violations and fines. Severe non-compliance can lead to water service being shut off until the issue is resolved.

🔧

Identify Failing Devices

Annual testing catches devices before they fail completely. Early detection allows for repair or replacement before a contamination event occurs.
