Why Are backflow tests required?

Every home with an irrigation system is required to have a backflow prevention assembly. You may also be required to have a backflow prevention assembly if you have a swimming pool. Many businesses are also required to have a backflow prevention assembly for various reasons.

Backflow prevention assemblies are designed to prevent waste water, chemicals, and other hazardous substances from being pulled into the public water system from your home or office.

Your water provider requires that all backflow prevention assemblies be tested every year to ensure they are working properly.

Why Coose Swell Guy Plumbing For Your Annual Backflow Test?

First, Swell Guy Plumbing shows up when you schedule a test with us. Please note that weather events such as rain and freezing temperatures can effect our ability to test your assembly if it’s located outdoors.

Second, if your initial test fails we don’t just walk away and say you need an expensive repair. We will attempt to clean the internal components of your backflow prevention assembly and immediately retest. Debris and dirty internals are a common reason why backflow prevention assemblies fail.

For passing tests, we’ll submit the results to your water provider by the end of the week. If we find faulty parts are the problem, we’ll give you a repair estimate. 

Finally, Swell Guy Plumbing is local, licensed and experienced. You’re not dealing with a large franchise based in California, you’re dealing with a local backflow tester who also happens to be a lifelong Lowcountry resident. We answer the phone when our customers call and respond to their texts. 

We might not be the cheapest backflow tester in the Lowcountry, but we value our customers and we want to be your first choice when you need with your backflow prevention assembly.
