A backflow device is a safety component on your irrigation system that helps prevent contaminated water from flowing back into your home’s or community’s clean water supply.
When backflow protection isn’t working properly, dirty water from soil, fertilizers, or chemicals can potentially flow backward into the main water line due to pressure changes in the system.
Common reasons backflow issues can occur include:
• Wear and tear over time
• Improper installation
• Damage from weather or debris
• Pressure changes in the irrigation system
Backflow problems are often not visible, but they can create serious health and safety concerns if left unaddressed. Backflow devices play an important role in protecting water quality for homes and communities.
Protecting your irrigation system also helps protect your home’s water and your local water supply.
