That’s a direct health risk to your family.

Our Backflow Prevention & Testing Services
We handle three distinct service lines, each covering a specific part of keeping your backflow prevention system functional and code-compliant.
Backflow Testing
Salt Lake City requires annual testing of backflow prevention assemblies. Our certified technicians use testing equipment to verify your devices operate correctly, then provide detailed compliance documentation for submission to Salt Lake City Public Utilities.
Backflow Prevention Installation
Installing a backflow preventer correctly demands technical precision and a thorough knowledge of local codes. We install each system to meet current requirements and support reliable, long-term protection for your water supply.
Backflow Device Repair
A malfunctioning backflow preventer leaves your water supply exposed. When a device fails, our technicians diagnose and repair the problem promptly to restore protection without unnecessary delay.
Salt Lake City’s Backflow Compliance Requirements
Salt Lake City Public Utilities requires backflow preventers to be tested annually and within 10 days of initial installation. Results must be submitted directly to the city’s Cross-Connection Control Program, which monitors connections to the water distribution system to prevent contamination from residential, commercial, and industrial cross-connections. These requirements are grounded in Utah Administrative Code R309-105-12, which mandates that public water systems maintain a functioning cross-connection control program, including periodic testing of backflow prevention assemblies.
Properties That Commonly Require Backflow Protection
The type of property determines which connections need a device and which device must be tested. If you’re unsure whether your property requires a device or a test, our team can assess your setup and walk you through what Salt Lake City requires.
Residential properties commonly required to have backflow protection include homes with:
- Lawn sprinkling or irrigation systems
- Hose bibs
- Pools or hot tubs
- Secondary water sources such as wells
Commercial properties commonly required to have backflow protection include those with:
- Fire sprinkler systems
- Boilers and chillers
- Pools
- Industrial process water connections
- Irrigation systems

Yes! If you have an emergency plumbing problem, we can respond promptly and make any repairs needed.

It may be difficult to prevent leaks entirely, but you do have options for minimizing risk. Seals and valves are a common source of leaks, so keeping up with maintenance can minimize the risk. Letting professional plumbers handle projects like repair and repiping will also ensure the entire system is as tightly sealed as possible.
-
The total cost will depend on where the leak is in your home as well as the extent of the damage. A minor, dripping leak is more easily resolved than severe damage to the water main.
-
With all the locations where water is used in your home, there are a lot of areas you could uncover a leak.
Leaks can be triggered by a variety of plumbing issues. They are usually spotted:
- On water supply lines and connections underneath a sink
- In washing machines, especially old units
- In hot- and cold-water hoses linked to your washing machine
If you notice the signs of a leak, we can help. We back all of our work with a Service Experts Guarantee for a year.*
-
If you believe you have a leak but can’t see the signs, check your water meter:
- Make sure no water is being used inside or outside your home.
- Check the leak indicator on your water meter. The indicator is commonly a triangular dial or miniature silver wheel. If the dial is spinning, you probably have a leak.
We can find the origin of the leak and get it repaired before you spend more money or potentially damage your home.
Our Salt Lake team is ready to take care of your home service needs—with fast service and expert services that you can always rely on.
