As the name suggests, backflow occurs when the water in your water system reverses direction in its flow and flows back towards the potable water supply, carrying with it pollutants already dumped into that water by home use.  Hazards usually associated with backflow are irrigation systems, hoses, a secondary source of water, swimming pools, or even a lake or pond.

A backflow prevention assembly, normally called a backflow preventer or a backflow device, will protect your home and the city’s potable water supply by not allowing the water to reverse direction.  Typical backflow preventers used are double check valve assemblies, a backflow valve, reduced pressure zone assemblies, single check valve assemblies, an air gap, and other combinations of valves and gaps, depending on the size of the potential problem.

Each year you not only should but you must have an annual backflow inspection by a certified backflow technician. This is non-negotiable and it is required by most city, state, and most definitely federal areas.  So you call a backflow technician, one like City Backflow Testing in the Dallas area, and you ask if that technician/installer uses ZEBCO products.  When dealing with backflow it is silly to shop around for better deals on inferior products, so ask about ZEBCO, and insist that your technician installs only ZEBCO products when he/she is working on your back flow preventer.
