Irrigation Backflow Testing in Fairfield, NC

Sprinkler systems are the most common reason a homeowner gets a backflow test letter. Heads sit in soil, fertilizer and pet waste, and a pressure drop on the main can pull that water back into the house supply.

Irrigation backflow testing covers whatever your system uses: a PVB on most homes, an RPZ where fertilizer injection is present, or a double check on some commercial sites.

Timing matters. In cold regions the device has to be charged and tested after spring start-up, then drained before the first hard freeze. Testing a winterized PVB is not possible, so the test lands between those two dates.

A tester also looks at the install. A PVB under 12 inches of rise, a missing union or a test cock painted shut are all common on older lawns.
