We understand the importance of protecting your water supply from contamination and pollution. Our team of licensed plumbers specialises in backflow prevention, ensuring your drinking water remains safe and compliant with Australian regulations.
Backflow occurs when water flows in the opposite direction through your plumbing system, potentially allowing contaminants to enter the main water supply. This can happen due to pressure changes in the system, such as during a water main break or when high water demand causes a drop in pressure. A backflow prevention device is critical in preventing this reverse flow and safeguarding your water supply.
Our skilled team can test, install, and maintain backflow preventers to ensure your system functions effectively. These devices maintain adequate pressure on the main water intake and prevent any backflow into the water supply network, keeping your drinking water safe.
We offer a range of backflow prevention services, including:
Backflow prevention test inspections and maintenance reports

Backflow Device Testing
Most residential properties will be considered low risk properties. Devices installed in high or medium risk properties need to be registered with and tested annually by a licensed plumber endorsed for backflow prevention testing.
This testing requirement is for:
- Backflow prevention devices
- Registered air gaps
- Break tanks
- Testable fire service single check vales.
