Backflow Services
Protect your water with backflow inspections and services
Backflow services include testing, inspections, and installing backflow preventers. These preventers are the backbone of every home or building’s water systems, as they are the first line of defense against contaminated water. They are usually found in septic systems. Alpha Omega Plumbing provides high-quality backflow preventer installations and maintenance to keep your water fresh and clean!
What are Backflow Services?
Backflow services refer to the maintenance and prevention measures to ensure that water flows in the intended direction within a plumbing system. This is crucial for preventing contaminated water from flowing into the clean water supply. Backflow prevention devices are installed and regularly serviced to maintain the water supply’s integrity and comply with local regulations and standards. Professional backflow services may include testing, maintenance, repair, and installation of backflow prevention devices to safeguard public health and protect the water supply from potential contamination.
Signs That You Need Backflow Services
- Water Pressure Changes: If your backflow preventer is malfunctioning, you might see a dip in water pressure. Backflow causes a vacuum within the water system, forcing water to flow abnormally.
- Odd Taste: Backflow preventers filter out sulfur content from the water. So, if you smell or taste sulfur in your water, it might be from a broken backflow preventer.
- Water looks cloudy or different from usual: If your water is not transparent and highly cloudy or brownish, do not drink it. Your backflow preventer is broken and needs to be replaced or repaired.
- Visible Debris: If your backflow preventer is broken, rust and sediment can come from your faucet. Check your water for debris so you can quickly replace it.
- Water Leaks: This is the most common sign that your backflow preventer is compromised. If your plumbing system is allowing backflow water to pass through its pipes, frequent water leaks will continue despite changing or unclogging pipes. If ignored for too long, this will ultimately lead to pipe bursts or breaks.
