Backflow in the Winter.

Backflow devices are found all over this great country.  They protect our drinking water from contamination.  Everywhere from sunny, warm southern Florida to Maine and right here in the Chattanooga area there are backflow problems that crop up.  There are differences in backflow prevention between warmer and chillier times of the year.

They all require annual inspections of assemblies nationwide, no matter the annual rainfall or average temperature in the dead of winter.  In cold weather, assemblies and their meters must be protected against freezing.  More damage can be done in cold climates than warm…it’s really that simple!

This time of year, snow and freezing temperatures can take their toll on access doors and equipment.  There is a perfect solution in Chattanooga, Hixon, and the surrounding area.  It’s All Home Plumbing.  That is whom you call for any and all inspections, repairs, and replacements of equipment.  Give All Home a call today at (423) 598-1466.
