Our dedicated backflow prevention plumbers ensure the safety and health of your water supply by preventing contamination and pollution due to backflow incidents.So, how does backflow occur? The water supply system is designed to maintain water flow to your property under pressure. However, if this pressure is compromised, there's a risk of water flowing backward into the water main. Several factors can affect water pressure, such as breaks in the water main, firefighting activities, customer usage exceeding supplied pressure, downstream water consumption affecting upstream pressure, and constant back pressure caused by elevated water outlets.Various properties pose a particular risk to public health if backflow occurs, necessitating the installation of backflow prevention devices. These properties include restaurants, laundries, mechanics, medical centres, chemical plants, golf courses/sporting ovals, car washing facilities, and abattoirs.
