Backflow Testing Services in Fayetteville, NC 

A backflow prevention device exists to stop contaminated water from flowing backward into the clean water supply, and like any mechanical device, it needs to actually be tested to confirm it’s still doing that job rather than just assumed to be working because it’s installed. Bass Air provides backflow testing for homes and businesses across Fayetteville and nearby towns including Spring Lake, Hope Mills, Raeford, and Linden. 

The Fayetteville Public Works Commission (PWC) requires backflow testing once a year, and a failed test needs to be addressed and retested before it’s considered resolved. A technician tests the device and provides documentation of the result, which is what PWC actually requires for compliance. 

Military, veteran, and first-responder customers get 10 percent off backflow testing. Call today to get started.

Backflow Testing: Annual Testing

PWC requires this test once a year, and it checks the device against its actual performance standard rather than just a visual inspection to confirm it’s functioning as intended.

Backflow Testing: Repairs

A device that fails testing gets repaired and retested, addressing the specific component that failed rather than replacing the entire assembly unnecessarily.

Backflow Testing: New Device Installation

A new backflow prevention device gets installed and sized correctly for the specific connection it’s protecting, whether that’s a home, an irrigation system, or a commercial line.

Customer Satisfaction

Every test includes documentation of the result, which is what PWC requires to confirm your device is compliant for the year.

FAQs

What is backflow, and why does it matter?

Backflow is when water flows in reverse, potentially pulling contaminated water back into the clean supply. A backflow prevention device stops that from happening, which is why it needs to be tested regularly.

How often does backflow testing need to happen?

The Fayetteville Public Works Commission (PWC) requires backflow testing once a year. A technician can confirm the specific requirement that applies to your connection.

What happens if my backflow device fails testing?

It needs to be repaired and retested before it’s considered compliant. A technician addresses the specific issue rather than assuming the whole device needs replacement. Backflow checks pair naturally with a water pressure assessment, since both look at how water moves through the same connections. 

Do I need backflow testing for a residential property, or is this just for businesses?

Many residential properties with irrigation systems fall under PWC’s annual testing requirement too, not just commercial connections. A technician can tell you whether your setup requires it.

What is PWC, and why do they require backflow testing?

PWC is the Fayetteville Public Works Commission, the local utility that manages the city’s water supply. They require annual backflow testing to confirm prevention devices are still protecting that supply from contamination.

Is there a military discount on backflow testing?

Yes. Bass Air’s 10 percent discount for military, veterans, and first responders covers backflow testing and repair.
