What happens during backflow testing?
Backflow testing involves checking the operation of the device using specialised testing equipment to confirm it is functioning correctly and providing the required level of protection.
If a backflow device fails testing, the cause needs to be identified and corrected. This may involve servicing, replacing parts or replacing the device if it is no longer reliable.
Failed backflow device?
A failed backflow test should not be ignored. A failed device may no longer provide adequate protection and may need servicing, repair or replacement.
Mindful Plumbing can explain the failure, provide practical recommendations and help organise rectification so compliance can be restored.
