Why Must Backflow be Tested Annually.

First of all, what are backflow assemblies? They are manufactured with epoxy-coated or stainless-steel bodies as well. The O-rings are made with a different variety of rubber compounds. So…why must this assembly in your Columbus Ohio home be tested every year without fail?

Here are 3 good reasons –

 

1.  It just makes good sense to be sure the mechanism is in good working order.

2.  Check the design and current operating capacity of the assembly.

3.  The state insists on it.

That third reason should be good enough without reading numbers 1 and 2! If you have received a reminder from the Buckeye state that your backflow assembly needs to be tested, the next step is to call Staats Plumbing of Columbus to have it done.
