Backflow Device Inspections

Ensure Your Water Supply Remains Contamination-Free

One of the pivotal measures taken by the city to prevent water contamination is the Backflow Inspection. A backflow inspection is a routine check of the plumbing systems in a building to ensure that contaminated water or hazardous materials do not flow backward into the public water supply. Due to changes in pressure, there's a potential for non-potable water to reverse its direction and mix with the potable water supply, leading to health hazards. NYC's stringent regulations mandate regular inspections of backflow prevention devices to keep the city's water safe and pure.
