The Purpose of Backflow Testing 

The FDEP requires homes and businesses with backflow preventer to get regular backflow testing from a licensed plumber, certified for backflow testing.

The purpose of a backflow prevention device is to keep contaminated water from backing up into the municipal potable water supply. Under normal conditions, your water is under great amounts of pressure. However, if the pressure is suddenly and dramatically reduced due to a leak in the municipal water supply or an unexpected surge in demand, the reduced water pressure can draw contaminated water into the municipal water supply.
