Backflow Prevention & PRV Installation

What Is Backflow, and Why Does It Matter?

Backflow happens when a drop in water pressure — from a main break, firefighting demand or heavy irrigation use — causes water to reverse direction and potentially pull contaminants back into the clean water supply. A certified backflow prevention assembly is a one-way check valve that stops this from happening.

• Required on most irrigation systems, fire sprinklers and commercial properties
• Must be tested annually by a certified technician in most LA jurisdictions
• Failing devices can result in fines or water service issues from your provider

Pressure-Reducing Valve (PRV) Installation

High municipal water pressure — common throughout the San Fernando Valley — quietly stresses pipes, fittings and appliances. A properly sized PRV, installed alongside your backflow assembly, brings incoming pressure down to a safe, code-compliant range.

• Testing & certification — annual testing with paperwork filed directly with your water provider.
• Repair & rebuild — worn seals, springs or check valves replaced to pass re-inspection.
• New installation — sized and installed to code for new construction or system upgrades.
• PRV installation — protects your whole plumbing system from high-pressure damage.

Our Process

We test or inspect the existing assembly, quote any repair or new installation up front, complete the work to code, and file all required certification paperwork with your water provider so you stay compliant.
