What is Backflow and Why Does It Matter?
Backflow occurs when water reverses direction, potentially pulling contaminants from your property back into the clean water supply. Imagine chemicals, bacteria, and other harmful substances finding their way into your drinking water—that’s the risk backflow creates.
To keep our water supply safe, backflow testing isn’t just a good idea—it’s the law in Los Angeles and throughout California. According to the California Code of Regulations, Title 17, and local ordinances, properties with backflow prevention devices must undergo annual testing. Certified backflow testers are required to perform these checks to ensure everything is working properly and to keep you in compliance with safety standards.

How is a Backflow Test Performed?
Testing a backflow preventer is a straightforward but vital process. Our backflow testers will:
- Inspect the backflow prevention device, such as a valve or assembly, to ensure it’s properly installed and undamaged.
- Test the backflow preventer to check for any malfunctioning parts.
- Verify the system’s pressure and ensure the water flow direction is correct to prevent contamination.
- Provide a certified backflow prevention test report, required by the city of Los Angeles, to verify compliance with health codes.
The process takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the system. Regular backflow assembly testing helps prevent contamination and ensures your property remains compliant with city and state regulations.
Who Benefits from Backflow Testing?
Backflow testing is essential for any property connected to the public water supply, but it’s especially important for:
- Commercial properties such as restaurants and factories that use large amounts of water.
- Residential properties with irrigation systems or sprinkler backflow prevention devices.
- Industrial properties with potential chemical contamination risks.
