Backflow Testing

Backflow Testing | Backflow Preventer

There’s No Room in Your Home for Polluted Water.

Nobody would ever argue the need for a constant supply of clean, healthy water in their homes. Some people do, however, argue over the need for certain types of water quality protection measures.

Take backflow prevention valves, for example. Does your home even have one? From our experience, there’s at least a 50% chance not only that you don’t, but that you don’t even know what they are. For your own sake, allow us to bring you up to speed and explain what a backflow preventer can do for you.

What is a Backflow Prevention Valve?

A backflow prevention valve attaches to your home’s plumbing pipes to prevent contaminated water from mixing with your drinking water supply.

Why would that be a problem? Think of it this way. Let’s say the sudsy water exiting your dishwasher or washing machine suddenly reversed its course and attempted to stay inside your home. If allowed to, that polluted water would then mix with your drinking water and potentially cause family members some serious discomfort, perhaps even a serious illness. The same thing can and does happen when sewer and drainpipes suddenly fail to remove wastewater from your home

Why You Should Have a Backflow Preventer

With a backflow preventer expertly installed by Messmer Mechanical and tested once a year, you can prevent backflow issues from harming members of your family. At the same time, make sure not to purchase a water sprinkler system for your home unless it comes with its own backflow preventer – otherwise, harmful chemicals could mix with your water.

Contact Messmer Mechanical today to learn more about backflow and how we can relieve you of that worry…for good.
