What Backflow Testing Involves and When It’s Needed
Backflow prevention devices are designed to keep water from moving backward through your plumbing system and potentially carrying contaminants into your potable water supply. Testing verifies that the device is functioning as intended and can identify problems before they become a larger concern.
Annual Checkups
Many properties with irrigation systems, fire protection equipment, or other cross-connections may be subject to testing regulations established by the applicable water provider.
Bellevue properties receiving water through Metropolitan Utilities District (M.U.D.) or other local utilities should understand their specific compliance requirements rather than assuming a backflow device can simply be installed and forgotten.
Our professional testing uses calibrated differential-pressure gauges to evaluate the operation of internal check valves and related components. We can also verify compliance and provide you with proper documentation.

Spring Irrigation Startups
Backflow testing is particularly relevant when underground sprinkler systems are brought back into service after winter. Outdoor Pressure Vacuum Breakers (PVBs) and other devices can be affected by freezing conditions, especially when valves do not shut off or drain properly.
Testing during spring startup can identify damage before an irrigation system is placed back into regular use. It is also a good time to address worn seals, valves, or other components that may need repair or rebuilding.
Core Protection
Two basic conditions can cause backflow. Back-siphonage occurs when a pressure drop in the incoming supply draws water backward, while backpressure occurs when pressure within equipment or another connected system exceeds the incoming supply pressure. Properly tested prevention devices are designed to help protect against both conditions.
