Why it matters

So, what actually is backflow?

Normally, water only flows one way — into your home or building. Backflow is when a drop in pressure lets water reverse course, pulling whatever it touched along the way (chemicals, fertilizer, even sewage) back toward the drinking supply. A backflow prevention device stops that. Testing it once a year just confirms it's still doing its job.

Clean supply, protected
A certified backflow assembly stops contaminated water from ever reaching the drinking supply.
1
More connections than you'd think
Irrigation lines, boilers, fire sprinklers, even a garden hose — anything connected to your plumbing is a potential path for contamination.
2
It's usually required, once a year
The City of Kamloops requires most properties with a backflow device to have it tested annually. We'll let you know if that applies to you.
3
One visit, and you're covered
We test the device, fill out the paperwork, and file your certificate with the city — you don't have to lift a finger.
