BACKFLOW INSTALLATION,
TESTING & PREVENTION

Need an Accredited Backflow Plumber in Sydney?

Backflow prevention is essential to ensuring consistent and safe drinking water for you, your staff and your residents. Every property connected to Sydney Water must be fitted with a Backflow Prevention Device and have it tested each year by an accredited and licensed plumber.

In addition to the Sydney Water containment devices, internal zone & individual connections must also be tested annually to confirm they are operating correctly.

More on backflow.

Backflow is the unwanted reverse flow of water from a property back into the water supply, which can contaminate your potable water with wastewater. Drinking contaminated water can cause serious illness and is potentially fatal. Additionally, backflow can also lead to corroded pipes and other plumbing issues in the future.

Keeping your water supply safe and consistent.

If there does happen to be a cross connection between drinking water and any source of contamination, a Backflow Prevention Containment Device ensures the drinking supply will be protected from any pollutants.

Annual testing of your backflow device, connections and internal zones by an accredited plumber is mandatory throughout Sydney, and also gives you confidence that your facility’s drinking water is safe – just as it should be.
