Installation, repair and annual testing of backflow preventers for commercial premises, irrigation and multifamily buildings.
M8334KY licensedBackflow Prevention & Testing in Western Kentucky
A backflow preventer stops used water being siphoned back into the drinking supply when pressure drops. Most commercial premises and irrigation systems are required to have one, and to have it tested annually.
We install, repair and test them, and we’ll keep you ahead of the date rather than chasing you after it has passed.

Backflow Prevention & Testing — your questions
It’s the distance between the tap outlet and the top of the sink or bath — an inch or more, and required by plumbing code. Without that gap, waste water can siphon back into the drinking supply.
Annually in most cases, and the certificate goes to the water authority. We’ll remind you before it’s due.
Usually. Most failures are a worn check or relief valve rather than a dead assembly, and a rebuild costs a fraction of a replacement.
