Backflow Testing & Sprinkler Plumbing in Timnath: what's different here

Almost every Timnath home has an irrigation system with a backflow preventer, many installed with new construction. Providers commonly require testing by a certified tester, often annually.

New-construction assemblies sometimes fail early tests because of debris from installation; a tester can clean or repair them.

Blow out irrigation lines and drain the assembly before the first hard freeze to avoid cracked bodies in spring.

Timnath's newer irrigation systems are usually automatic, with controllers that start in spring. Testing before the first scheduled run catches a failed check valve or cracked body before water is wasted or the drinking water supply is put at risk.
