Backflow FAQs
Which backflow device do I need?
We match the hazard and code requirements: RP for high hazard, DC for non-health hazard, and PVB for irrigation where allowed.
Do you submit test reports?
Yes. We file results with the local authority and provide copies for your records.
Can you move or protect my backflow?
We can relocate for access/appearance when code allows and add cages or insulated covers as needed.
