Got a backflow test notice?
We test backflow assemblies in Raleigh for homes, irrigation systems, restaurants, offices, churches, shops, and commercial buildings.
If it passes, good. If it does not, we tell you what failed and what the repair would take.
Call 919-423-7595Backflow testing is not something most people think about until a notice shows up.
The letter usually says the device needs to be tested by a certified tester and turned in before the due date.
Where is the device? Is it for irrigation, domestic water, fire line, restaurant equipment, or another connection? Do you have the notice from the city or water provider?
Sometimes the test does not pass. That does not always mean the whole device has to be replaced.
It may need cleaned, rebuilt, repaired, or retested. If the assembly is old, damaged, leaking badly, or not approved anymore, replacement may be the better answer.
Device is accessible, valves work, test passes, paperwork gets handled.
We explain what failed before doing repair work.
Some assemblies drip outside, leak at shutoffs, or dump water from the relief area.
Older devices may not be worth rebuilding if parts are bad or the body is in rough shape.
Spring is busy because irrigation systems get turned back on and notices start showing up.
Restaurants call because they cannot let the test sit. Property managers call when they have several assemblies on one site.
Homeowners usually just want it done without making a big project out of it.
If you can, have the notice ready. It usually has the assembly information and due date.
Also make sure the device can be reached. Some are outside by the meter, some are near irrigation equipment, and some are inside mechanical rooms.
