Services
These days, we all expect our water to be clean and safe. And generally, it is.until a water main bursts or some other unexpected event creates contamination. Eric Troudt of Troudt Plumbing, Greeley is a Certified Backflow Tester with the (ASSE) American Society of Sanitary Engineering. That means we are a certified backflow repair company, qualified to test, repair, and install backflow assemblies.
Backflow testing and repair can identify and eliminate cross-contamination, thereby protecting our drinking water. Water quality can be compromised by organic contaminants like viruses and bacteria. Inorganic contaminants like salts and metals can also make water unsafe. Some are naturally occurring, and some are from industrial or domestic wastewater discharges.
Backflow repair is one of those services that when needed has to be done, and done as soon as possible. It's actually only been since the late 1950s that communities began to focus on the need for clean drinking water and how to protect public potable water from cross-contamination. Fire mains and industrial water lines had been supplied with double check valves at least half a century earlier.
When do you need a backflow preventer installation? There are a number of circumstances that demand it, and your local city plumbing code can give you all the specifics. When activities, materials used in connection with these activities, or materials stored at your location could contaminate or pollute the potable water supply.
Backflow is always a problem. When contaminated water streams back into the potable water supply, it's a potential health crisis, and might be quite serious. And if a water main bursts or the fire department needs to open a number of hydrants simultaneously, the chance for flow reversal goes up. Even freezing pipes can change the pressure in water hoses, again causing a backflow crisis.
