Backflow Testing & Prevention FAQs

Clear Answers to Common Questions About Backflow Services

  • What is backflow testing and why is it important?

    Backflow testing is a process where we check the backflow prevention devices that prevent contaminated water from mixing with your clean water supply. It's important for maintaining the safety and purity of your drinking water.

  • How often should backflow testing be performed?

    Typically, backflow testing should be performed annually to ensure your system is working correctly and continues to protect your water supply effectively.

  • What types of properties need backflow prevention?

    Both residential and commercial properties may require backflow prevention devices, especially if there are any cross-connections between potable (drinking) and non-potable water sources.

  • What does a backflow prevention device do?

    A backflow prevention device is designed to allow water to flow in one direction only, preventing contaminants from entering your clean water supply.

  • What happens if a backflow test fails?

    If a backflow test fails, it typically means that the prevention device is not functioning properly, and immediate repairs or replacement will be necessary to protect your water supply from contamination.

Snapshots of their experiences

I was having garbage disposal issues, which caused the kitchen to smell like vomit with old food being regurgitated back up frequently from the drain. Called Trent up, and he was able to fix it in less than 10 minutes at a very good and reasonable price. He even explained a bit about what he was doing and taught me a bit about the plumbing when I asked, which was really cool. Great service, great price, and a great guy overall. 5/5, Iā€™d totally recommend him and will definitely call again if I ever need help!

I have used this company for a variety of plumbing issues from replacing my water heater, upgrading my bathroom faucets and shower heads, multiple plugged drain issues and a leaking pipe in my attic! Trent always shows up happy and ready to work, his attitude is appreciated and I never feel like I am being overcharged for any service! He's even fixed a few drywall holes and they look great!! Would highly recommend this company. I will be hiring Trent again very soon for 2 complete bathroom remodels! Keep up the good work. šŸ‘

Ryan had replaced both water heaters and helped us with moving our toilet and putting in a walk in shower. He not only offers a superior quality of service but he also has the foresight to understand what could affect other things before it happens... therefore saving more $! HIGHLY recommend!

Service companies always say they are best price, best service and fast. Well, we all know that it is very unusual to have all 3... it is not the norm. You get to pick to two of them. Well, my experience with JG hit all three. Can't thank them enough for our emergency and regular plumbing work at the house.
