Repair or Replace…Which is the Right Decision?

Should you replace backflow prevention assemblies or should you repair them when they fail our testing.  As with so many issues today this one has many variables to it.  How old is the assembly?  Is it less expensive to replace rather than repair?  How difficult will the repair be?  Is it simply time to update the assembly?  The list simply goes on and on.

We are a plumbing contractor that tests backflow prevention assemblies on a regular basis.  We have a policy that if an assembly is one inch or smaller and it fails an annual test our service technician will probably recommend that you have the assembly replaced.  We carry replacement assemblies on our service truck, so you don’t have to wait for an order to come in.
