Initial Backflow Testing for New Construction

Backflow testing is crucial in maintaining the safety and quality of your drinking water. Our state-certified technicians at O&M Water Solutions will thoroughly inspect and test your backflow prevention devices, helping you comply with local and state regulations and ensuring that your water supply is free from contamination.

The initial backflow testing for new construction involves installing a backflow prevention device and having it testing it by a certified tester. Another requirement is that the new assembly information is sent to the water purveyor.

Other Types of Backflow Assemblies

Reduced Pressure Backflow Assemblies (RPBA) in soda machines and boilers protect from health hazards that can cause illness or death. Pressure Vacuum Breaker (PVB) and Spill-Resistant Vacuum Breaker (SVB) are smaller assemblies that work in tight places to protect against a variety of potential hazards.

Comprehensive Backflow Testing Process

Our backflow testing process is designed to be thorough and efficient. We begin by inspecting your backflow prevention devices for any visible signs of damage or wear.

Inspection and Testing Procedure

Our certified technicians inspect your backflow prevention devices for any signs of damage. Next, we perform comprehensive testing to ensure the devices are functioning properly and protecting your water supply from contamination.

Results and Documentation

Testing will provide detailed documentation of your backflow assembly. Copies will be given to you as well as your water purveyor.

Repair and Maintenance

If any issues arise during the testing process, our technicians can help facilitate the necessary repairs.
