Frequently asked questions
What is backflow prevention and why is it important?
Backflow prevention protects your drinking water supply from contamination by preventing water from flowing backwards into the clean water system. This is crucial for maintaining water quality and public health, especially in commercial and industrial settings where contaminated water could enter the main supply.
How often does backflow prevention testing need to be performed?
In Perth, backflow prevention devices must be tested annually by a licensed technician. Some high-risk properties may require more frequent testing. We'll provide you with a testing schedule and send reminders when your next test is due.
What types of properties require backflow prevention devices?
Most commercial and industrial properties require backflow prevention devices, as well as residential properties with irrigation systems, swimming pools, or certain plumbing fixtures. Perth Water will notify property owners if backflow prevention is required.
What happens if my backflow device fails the test?
If your device fails testing, we'll immediately repair or replace the necessary components to ensure compliance. We carry common parts and can often complete repairs on the same visit. You'll receive a new compliance certificate once the device passes testing.
How much does backflow prevention testing cost?
Testing costs vary depending on the type and size of the device, but we offer competitive, transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Contact us for a quote specific to your property and device type.
