Backflow is a serious issue for homes and businesses everywhere. Essentially, it means that water is flowing back into your pipes when it should be leaving your home. Fortunately, we’re your local experts for backflow prevention in Sydney.
There are usually two causes for backflow. Firstly, there is back pressure, which means water is being pushed in the wrong direction. Back siphonage is the other cause, and this means the pressure in your water supply is lower than your plumbing system’s pressure.
Backflow can cause serious health risks for your family, and should be addressed quickly.
Why is backflow prevention important?
Preventing backflow into your plumbing system is important for the health of your family. When backflow occurs, either through back pressure of back siphonage, contaminants are entering your water supply. Rather than drinking clean water from your supply, you could end up drinking used water that should have already left your home.
The worst thing about backflow is that it may not be instantly noticeable. However, contaminants could be entering your water, making it unsafe for use. Because you always want the best plumbing in Sydney, you need to install a backflow containment device. That’s where the professionals come in.
