Backflow Testing:
Drake’s 7 Dees +
Backflow testing is also included in this program. For our clients in Oregon this takes place through our certified partners at Oregon Backflow Testing. Washington clients are tested through a certified tester from Drake’s 7 Dees. Services include:
- Test backflow to make sure both your drinking water and your water district water supply is safe from contaminated water flowing back into the system. Oregon and Washington require that backflow prevention devices are tested on an annual basis.
- *Test results will be sent to your water purveyor so you are up to date on your annual requirement.
Testing begins mid-January through March. Tests do not require that the irrigation system is turned on and can be tested during low temps as it does not affect your sprinkler system.
*If your backflow produces a failed test you will be notified by your tester and given an estimate for the cost of repair. After repair a passing test will be sent to your water purveyor.
