Prevention Through Testing
There is a wide array of methods to properly maintain a property’s water source. One way is to test for backflow by looking for possible pressure issues. Backflow occurs when your water system’s pressure is higher than the pressure of the supply reserve. The water coming out in the home is more intense than the water coming into the supply.
As a result, higher-pressured, contaminated water seeps back into your clean water.
Outside of testing, there is also a wide range of backflow prevention devices to further protect the property’s water supply. This includes:
- Air gap
- Atmospheric vacuum breaker
- Chemigation valve (primarily used in agriculture)
- Double check valve assembly
- Pressure vacuum breaker assembly
- Reduced pressure zone device
- Spill resistant pressure vacuum breaker assembly
- Vacuum breaker
At KNP, our qualified crew of technicians can professionally inspect and test your backflow setup, ensuring your water system is running smoothly and cleanly.
