Keep unwanted water
out of the supply.
Backflow occurs when water reverses direction. At a cross-connection, that reversal can allow unwanted substances to enter a drinking water supply.

Testing schedules and reporting requirements vary by water provider. Keep your testing notice and follow the instructions that apply to your property.
Review your notice
Check the deadline, assembly details, and any forms your water provider supplied.

Make sure the assembly is accessible and have your property information ready.
Understand the result
If a problem is found, discuss the repair needs and any follow-up testing.

Common questions
Know what
to expect.
A few answers to help you prepare for backflow service.
What does a backflow preventer do?
A backflow prevention assembly helps prevent water from flowing backward into a water supply. The appropriate type depends on the connection and the requirements of the water provider.
How often do I need testing?
Your water provider determines the required schedule. Check your latest notice or contact the provider to confirm the testing deadline for your property.
What happens if my assembly fails?
A failed test indicates that the assembly did not meet the applicable testing criteria. Repairs and a follow-up test may be needed. Your water provider can explain its reporting and deadline requirements.
Will testing interrupt my water service?
Testing may involve a temporary interruption. Let the service provider know about any equipment, business operations, or occupants that require continuous water service so the visit can be planned accordingly.
