Just a reminder…A backflow device is also known as an RPZ
valve. The letters stand for Reduced
Pressure Zone. This device is installed
onto your plumbing system to protect your drinking water and the city water
supply from contaminants. Without it,
contaminants can enter an irrigation system from fertilizer or pesticides that
are sprayed onto lawns.
If you have a water leak in your Columbus area home, be it a
house water service break, city water main break, hydrant flushing, or hydrant
use due to a fire, the water pressure in the house or city water mains can drop
lower than the water pressure in the systems. When this happens, it can cause
water from the systems to back-up into the drinking water supply.
It simply MUST be inspected every year to make sure it is in
working condition…that’s the law! To
make sure your home is in compliance, call on Staats Plumbing for a thorough
inspection of your Columbus, Ohio RPZ valve.
