What is Backflow?
Backflow is the unwanted reversal of the flow of water or other substances in a plumbing system. It happens when water flows in the opposite direction from its intended path, which can lead to contamination of the clean water supply. Chad’s Backflow Services can help you with service, replacement or repair.
Backflow can occur due to two main reasons:
- Backpressure – When the downstream pressure (e.g., from a boiler or elevated tank) is higher than the supply pressure, it forces water to flow backward.
- Backsiphonage – When there is a sudden drop in supply pressure (e.g., a water main break or high demand from a hydrant), causing contaminated water to be sucked back into the clean water system.
To prevent backflow, devices like backflow preventers or check valves are installed in plumbing systems, especially in places where cross-connections between potable and non-potable water exist.

BACKFLOW
TESTING
Backflow system testing is the process of inspecting and verifying that a backflow prevention device is functioning correctly to prevent contaminated water from reversing into the clean water supply. Testing is typically required by local water authorities and should be conducted annually by a certified backflow tester.
BACKFLOW
INSTALLATION
Backflow installation involves setting up a backflow prevention device to protect the potable water supply from contamination due to backpressure or backsiphonage. Proper installation is essential for compliance with plumbing codes and water safety regulations.
BACKFLOW
REPAIR
Backflow repair is the process of diagnosing and fixing issues with a backflow prevention device to ensure it continues to protect the potable water supply from contamination. If a backflow preventer fails testing due to leaks, pressure imbalances, or faulty valves, repairs are necessary.

Thanks Chad,
I found Chad’s company online because we needed our Backflow to be tested. He performed the work & went out of his way correcting issues necessary for it to Pass. He was most reasonable in his pricing & was $50% cheaper than the larger plumbing company we had quote on it. The home is in Abacoa & we found out he had done our neighbors homes, as well. Highly recommend.
If you are behind on the Backflow testing like me, attached is a wonderful gentleman who came out and fixed it at a fraction of the cost. My entire backflow preventor did not need to be replaced as I was originally told.
