Backflow Testing

Protect Your Water Supply with Certified Backflow Testing

Backflow issues can pose serious risks to your water supply, potentially contaminating drinking water with pollutants or harmful substances. At Grizzly Plumbing, we provide professional backflow testing and prevention services across Port Macquarie to safeguard your property and ensure compliance with local regulations.

What is Backflow?

Backflow occurs when water flows in the reverse direction, allowing contaminants from external sources to enter your clean water supply. This can happen due to:

  • Sudden changes in water pressure.
  • Cross-connections between potable and non-potable water systems.
  • Faulty backflow prevention devices.

Regular backflow testing is essential to identify and rectify these issues before they compromise your health or property.

Why Backflow Testing is Important

Health and Safety: Protect your family, employees, or customers from exposure to contaminated water.

Regulatory Compliance: Local regulations in Port Macquarie require annual testing of backflow prevention devices for certain properties.

Risk Prevention: Early detection of backflow issues can prevent costly damage or water supply disruptions.

Our Backflow Testing Services

At Grizzly Plumbing, we offer a comprehensive range of backflow prevention and testing solutions, including:

  1. Backflow Device Testing: Certified testing to ensure your backflow prevention devices are functioning correctly and meet Australian Standards.
  2. Installation of Backflow Prevention Devices: Installation of industry-approved devices to protect your water supply from contamination.
  3. Repairs and Maintenance: Quick and reliable repairs for faulty or ageing backflow prevention systems to restore optimal performance.
  4. Certification and Reporting: Once testing is complete, we provide detailed reports and submit compliance documents to the relevant authorities on your behalf.

Who Needs Backflow Testing?

Certain properties in Port Macquarie are required to have backflow testing conducted annually, including:

  • Commercial properties such as cafes, restaurants, and offices.
  • Industrial facilities with potential cross-connections.
  • Residential properties with irrigation systems or pools.
  • Properties with rainwater tanks connected to the main water supply.

If you’re unsure whether your property requires testing, our team can assess your setup and advise accordingly.
