Backflow is the undesirable reversal of flow of water or mixture of water and other liquids, gases, or other substances into the distribution pipes of the potable supply of water from any source or sources.

Backflow can reverse the flow of water or other substances into the public or private water system, resulting in chemicals or contaminants getting into the drinking water. Simply put, due to changes in pressure, the water can flow in the opposite direction from the way it was originally designed and what is intended, thus inadvertently contaminating your private or the public water supply.

Backflow testing is testing of the backflow equipment on water systems to make sure it is working properly. In the event of municipal system pressure loss it could potentially allow the water from contaminated areas of private systems to flow back into the municipal water supply creating a toxic situation. Maintenance of Backflow Preventer's are Critical to Safe (Potable) Drinking Water Systems.

Water is an essential ingredient for life and may be the most precious resource the earth has to offer humanity. All the fresh water in the world's lakes, creeks, streams and rivers are less than .01 percent of the earth's total water supply. We MUST protect our world's most valuable and precious resource.
