Testing & Certification
Backflow prevention assemblies must be tested annually, as required by the State of California and your local Water District. When your test is due, you’ll
receive a notice from your water purveyor.
Once we complete your test, we take care of everything — submitting the official certification directly to your Water District and providing you with a copy for your records.
If your backflow assembly doesn’t pass, we’ll explain the issue and provide repair or replacement options to ensure your system meets all compliance standards.
Over time, backflow assemblies may fail testing and require repair. In many cases, a simple cleaning and removal of debris inside the assembly restores proper function.
When parts are worn or damaged, we replace them with certified components to ensure your system operates safely and remains in full compliance with local and state regulations.
Installation
All installations are completed in accordance with city codes and water district regulations to ensure full compliance and protection against cross-connections.
If your local water department identifies any required updates or modifications, we’ll guide you through the necessary steps to bring your system up to standard.
Replacement
Over time, wear, corrosion, rust, or outdated equipment can make replacement necessary.
Our team has extensive experience replacing all sizes, makes, and models of backflow assemblies — from large fire mains to small internal units, whether mounted on rooftops or installed in underground vaults.
No matter the setting, you can trust us to handle the job safely, efficiently, and to code.
