Backflow testing is not just a regulatory requirement—it is a critical step in safeguarding the health of your community. A backflow preventer is an essential device that ensures water from your property (such as from irrigation systems or internal plumbing) does not flow backward into the public water system due to pressure changes (backsiphonage or backpressure). This annual test, mandated by local water districts, is crucial for safety and compliance, preventing potential contamination of the municipal water supply.
As registered and ABPA certified back-flow testers by the American Backflow Prevention Association, Anacapa Plumbing guarantees top-quality service that meets all municipal standards. We are your local specialists for complete backflow device solutions, including:
