Backflow Testing & Certification
Certified Backflow Technician — the owner personally performs and certifies every test.
Annual backflow device testing and certification by a Certified Backflow Technician.
A backflow prevention device keeps contaminated water from flowing backward into the clean water supply — and in Utah, devices on irrigation systems and other cross-connections are required to be tested on a regular schedule. The owner is a Certified Backflow Technician, so the same person who tests your device is the certified technician signing the paperwork, and the same person who repairs it if it fails. No third-party tester, no hand-off to a subcontractor.
