Why does my residential home irrigation system need inspected?
-
Most water authorities in Georgia will require home-owners with irrigation systems to maintain a passing backflow preventer on your home irrigation water system.
-
Containments mixed with the water to irrigate your yard can potentially flow backward into your neighborhoods main water supply line in the form of back-flow. A backflow preventer is installed to prevent these chemicals from "back-washing" into your drinking water.
-
A certified backflow inspector is required once a year to test the devices or repair them if they are not passing if enforced by your local municipality.
-
If the backflow preventer is located outside near your irrigation water meter an appointment is not necessary to perform an inspection with a technician.

Counties
-

~Have you received a letter saying its time to have your backflow devices tested?
-
Your local water authority has the right to disconnect water service to your property if your backflows are not passing and holding tight against backflow.
-
Here are the steps we take to assure you are compliant:
-
Schedule a time to meet at your property and test all backflow preventers required by the authority.
-
Fill out reports to inform county your backflow preventers results & fax reports to county ASAP.
-
If backflow preventers fail we can go over the options available to be in compliance with the municipality.
-
In one year we will inform you it is time to retest your backflow preventers to help keep you water on!
