Understanding the importance of backflow testing is crucial if you have a sprinkler system installed. Backflow can become a serious issue if not taken care of properly. It can cause contamination in your water system if it’s not detected early. At Discount Sprinkler Service we do backflow tests to make sure that your system is not causing any backflow into your water system. It’s important that you give us a call today before your water becomes contaminated thus causing more damage later on.

What Causes Backflow?

Backflow is caused when water is pushed or pulled by the force of water in your area by the water pressure in your city. It can happen in tall buildings from the height and weight of the column of water. At a point of a cross connection system (connection between potable and non-potable water source) is where backflow can also occur. If you think you may be at risk for backflow, call us and we can help.

Preventing Backflow

To prevent backflow a mechanical device, also known as a backflow prevention assembly, is installed into your plumbing system. Our company also installs these devices. It is very important to get your backflow device tested if you already have one, or have one installed if you don’t. Backflow can lead to serious issues if not taken care of right away.
