What is backflow prevention and why Massachusetts homeowners need it?
Backflow prevention devices stop contaminated water from flowing backward into your drinking supply, protecting families and neighbors. In Massachusetts, many homes and businesses are required to install, maintain, and periodically test approved backflow devices to meet state codes.
How often should a backflow device be tested by a licensed plumber in MA?
Most devices require annual testing by a licensed plumber to verify they are functioning correctly and not allowing contaminants into the supply. Massachusetts codes sometimes mandate more frequent inspections for high-risk systems.
What should I expect during a Massachusetts backflow inspection?
A licensed plumber will arrive with equipment to test the device, ask about water use, and review the system layout. The process includes pressure testing, identifying leaks, and delivering a written report.
