Licensed and Certified
Master Plumbing is the Pro Backflow Experts in the bay area! We are AWWA licensed and certified to test, repair, and replace backflow devices. Whether large or small, domestic, recycled, or fire lines. We take care of submitting all your annual paperwork to your administrative authority. In addition, we will remind you when you are due for your yearly test.
When a backflow does not pass the test, we can rebuild or replace it, no matter the size.
Backflow Testing
Once a year, you will receive a Backflow test notice and Test Report from your local administrative authority. A licensed and trained professional is required. There is a timeframe for completing the testing and submitting compliance paperwork. Call us for an appointment right away. For example, during a pressure differential test, there might be a temporary interruption to the structure’s water supply. Master Plumbing will submit your completed test paperwork to the authority, and you are current for another year.
Rebuild Rubber Kit
If your backflow device fails the annual test, we can repair interior rubber gaskets with a rebuild kit. A rebuild is a fraction of the cost of a replacement backflow device. Although this usually solves the problem, there’s no guarantee that the device will pass testing.
Replacement
If your backflow fails its test and a rebuild kit does not bring it to AWWA test standards, it is time to replace it. There are many requirements for replacing a backflow by your local administrative authority. Our knowledge of local authority requirements and what you need to comply with will streamline the process. Our licensed professionals can tell you what they believe will be the best action for your particular situation. We will answer your questions about backflow replacement and include a free quote. Master Plumbing’s team of professionals can replace any backflows required.
