Backflow Prevention
In the realm of plumbing, certification matters. Thats why when it comes to backflow prevention, you want nothing less than the best. That’s why at TK Plumbing and Gas, we are proud to have a team of backflow certified technicians who are meticulously trained to handle all issues that can arise from backflow.
Our technicians have undergone extensive training and are certified to inspect, install, and maintain backflow prevention devices, ensuring that your water supply remains pure and uncontaminated.
Backflow testing is a precise and essential procedure designed to protect the purity of our water supply, and it’s a task our team at TK Plumbing and Gas takes seriously. When we conduct backflow testing, our certified plumbers initiate the process by shutting off the downstream isolation valve of your backflow device.
After waiting a few crucial minutes, we employ a specialised backflow testing kit to measure the pressure within your system. This is done to ensure that the pressure levels are appropriate and that your backflow prevention device is functioning correctly.
If there is a difference or drop in water pressure, a properly functioning backflow device will prevent contaminated water, potentially laden with hazardous chemicals, bacteria, or debris, from flowing back into the mains water system.
