When it comes to backflow, you can trust Lenox Plumbing. Our ASSE certified plumbers will test your home or commercial space’s backflow for cleanliness, as well as make any needed repairs to ensure that your water is safe.
Depending on your home or commercial building’s elevation, location, etc., it can be susceptible to backflow, the process in which the water in your main water supply line flows backwards or in a reverse direction towards your space. Backflow is dangerous, and even regulated by municipal governments, because it can cause waste water to re-enter your home or building’s water supply. This problem is commonly solved by a backflow preventer, a valve that is installed onto pipes that only allows water to flow in one direction and not the other.
Because backflow prevention is so crucial to health and safety, it is required that plumbers are certified through the American Society of Sanitary Engineering (ASSE) in their their given state in order to be properly trained and allowed to test backflow. At Lenox, our plumbers are ASSE certified in the state of Michigan, and experienced in all things related to backflow testing. We provide backflow testing services for homeowners, business owners and properly owners alike. Call us today to schedule your annual backflow testing services.
If our plumbers find any issues with your backflow during the testing process, don’t worry. We will assess the situation, and make any needed repairs to your backflow preventer or main water and sewer lines. We are also able to replace or install a new backflow preventer when needed.
Yes, Michigan plumbers need an ASSE certification to test backflow.
According to the State of MI Safe Drinking Water Rules Part 399, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality requires all residential backflow devices be tested “periodically” to ensure they are working properly. It is highly recommended that you get your backflow tested annually to test for clean drinking water.
Backflow devices or preventers are installed on your home or the building’s main water supply line.
If backflow occurs or waste water flows back into your home or other space, it can contaminate the water supply leaving it toxic, undrinkable and unsafe for other uses.
