Preventing Backflow.

Learning how to test a backflow preventer is very important, since there are over 10,000 reported cases of backflow contamination each year.  Some of them can even be fatal!  Testing for backflow in your Chattanooga area home is NOT an option.  Backflow prevention devices are required by law and must be installed. 

What is in a typical backflow assembly?  Well, it has test cocks and shut-off valves and must be checked yearly and when the unit is installed or when relocating.  There are several types of backflow test equipment that are available from multiple manufacturers.  This is all pretty boring isn’t it?

What you need to know is that in the Chattanooga area the very best place to call to have that mandatory backflow test should be the plumbing pros at All Home Plumbing.  The crew at All Home will run the proper test and hand you the certification for another year.  Call All Home Plumbing for backflow protection at (423) 598-1466.
