What Are Backflow Preventer Installation Services?

When a Stephens Plumbing certified technician performs the backflow inspection procedure, they will shut off the backflow valve. A test kit is placed in the device, measuring the water that's inside. Once the backflow testing is complete, the kit is removed, which indicates whether you have a cross connector and whether you need to schedule a backflow preventer installation appointment or  take other steps to prevent backflow.

If there is already a backflow prevention device installed, our backflow prevention testing options will determine whether it's working correctly or if it's the right size.
