Irrigation & Backflow Testing

If your home or property has a lawn sprinkler system – also known as an irrigation system – you are responsible for having your backflow preventer inspected every year. Backflow inspection and testing helps keep the community’s drinking water safe and is required annually.

What is a Backflow Preventer?

A backflow preventer is a device that’s installed on your home’s water pipes to keep contaminants, like chemicals from yard sprays or bacteria from animal droppings, out of the water supply. Residential backflow preventers may be found on lawn irrigation systems, wet fire protection systems, hot water heating (boiler) systems, swimming pools, water features, etc.

Why is Backflow Testing Important?

If you have any of the items listed above, it is tied into the City’s water system, which creates a cross connection. A backflow preventer is required to prevent cross connection and keep contaminants out of the public water main. The installation and annual testing of backflow devices is required by the State of Indiana.

How Do I Get My Backflow Preventer Tested?

Contact a licensed or certified backflow tester to visit your property for an inspection and testing of your backflow preventer. Once we complete the inspection, we will hang a tag with the test results on or near the backflow preventer.
