What is a backflow prevention device?

A backflow prevention device is a plumbing tool that is essential to keep contaminated and dirty water into your clean water supply. These systems are designed with valves that only allow water to move in one direction—out from your system. This is important because without a backflow valve, your drinking water can be cross-contaminated from chemicals, waste, or bacteria. These devices are often placed where your home or building connects to the main waterline as per state guidelines. Our expert technicians can help you select the best device to keep your water safe, clean, and flowing the right way.

Why does the state mandate backflow prevention devices?

How do you test a backflow prevention device?

Testing a backflow prevention device is an important step in keeping your water source safe. Our professional and expert technicians will start by turning off the water supply and attaching special test gauges to the device. These gauges help check water pressure and make sure the valves are working correctly to stop water from flowing backward. During the inspection, our contractors will look for signs of wear or damage. If something isn't working right, they may recommend a repair or, if needed, a full replacement. These services help protect your water from contaminants and keep your plumbing system in line with local safety rules.

While it's always safest to have a professional company test your backflow prevention device, there are a few steps you can take as a business or homeowner. First, locate your backflow device—usually near your water meter or where your system connects to the main waterline. Visually inspect for leaks, rust, or unusual wear. You can gently turn the test cocks (small valves on the device) and check if water flows properly. If something doesn't look right—like low pressure, dripping, or blocked flow—it may be time for a repair or full replacement. Regular checks help you spot problems early. 

Can you test a backflow prevention device yourself?

Your Backflow Prevention & Testing FAQs...

Answered by FRY!

  • How much does a backflow prevention device cost?

    The cost of a backflow prevention device varies based on type and size. Residential devices typically range from between $200 to $600. For commercial properties, costs can range from $500 to $1,500 or more because the larger systems often require more complex devices and labor. The costs also depend on the location and plumbing setup. 

  • Who certifies backflow prevention devices?

    In Ohio, backflow prevention devices must be tested by a certified backflow tester. Certification is provided by the Ohio Department of Commerce. Only professionals with this certification can formally test and repair backflow devices. 

  • How often do I need to test my backflow prevention device?

    Ohio regulations require that backflow prevention devices be tested annually. This ensures the device is functioning correctly and meets the state standards. It also protects the public water supply from contamination. Failure to comply can result in penalties or water service interruptions. At FRY Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing, we offer certified backflow testing to help you stay compliant and ensure your water remains safe.
