Backflow Preventer Repair

Ever wonder how your potable water stays free of mixing with the wrong stream? A backflow preventer is the designated driver in this story, ensuring that your potable water comes to your home free and clear of contaminants. When a Backflow Preventer is properly installed and maintained by ER Block Plumbing’s certified technicians, your home will receive only clean potable water that is safe for your baths, gardens and pools. Without this important unit, the dirty water from other city water lines could mix with the potable water designated to your home, which could possibly contaminate the water supply causing your loved ones and lush landscapes to come into contact with potentially harmful bacteria. This hazardous situation happens when the pressure from city water lines fluctuates, causing the flow of water to reverse and siphon backwards. This is when the Backflow Preventer jumps into action and plays a vital role in the quality of your water. When the water pressure causes the water to siphon backwards, the Backflow Preventer closes, causing the water flow to stop and, therefore, preserving the quality of the water in your pipes until the water resumes its normal flow direction. Ensure the safety of the water running to your home and call ER Block Plumbing Backflow technicians in the Inland Empire and surrounding areas today to inspect your Backflow Preventer.
