What Stopps Plumbing can do

Determining the level of risk of water contamination
Recommending and installing the correct backflow prevention devices, given the risk of contamination identified
Testing any backflow devices currently in place (e.g. checking that valves are opening and closing as they should) to make sure there are no abnormalities or defects
Fixing any issues discovered through testing
Lodging the required formal report with Sydney Water
Why you need backflow testing and installations

Backflow prevention is the prevention of contaminants entering the drinking water system via a cross-connection. This cross-connection may be as simple as a hose from a garden tap sitting in a bucket of chemicals. If the water pressure drops in the main pipe, the chemicals can be syphoned into the drinking water system. A suitable backflow prevention device will solve this potentially deadly issue.

Who is most at risk of causing water contamination?

Major contamination risks are present for businesses that routinely use chemicals. And we’re not just talking about chemical plants, refineries, and industrial businesses. Contamination can be caused by seemingly innocent businesses like dog washers and car detailing businesses.

Don’t put off backflow testing and installations

If you haven’t had your backflow system inspected in the last 12 months, it is critical that you do something about it straight away.
