Back Flow Prevention in Kitchener ON

Back flow prevention is needed to prevent a cross connection within our water systems. A cross-connection is any actual or potential connection between the municipal drinking water system and any source of pollution or contamination. For example, under certain circumstances a hose submerged in a sink or container full of dirty water or chemicals could draw the water from the sink or container back into the municipal drinking water system. Cross-connection control, or back flow prevention, helps to ensure our drinking water is protected from external contamination of the drinking water supply system

​

Most cities and and municipalities require and industrial, commercial, institutional, and multi-residential properties to be compliant with a back flow prevention by-law. Certain back flow prevention devices need to be installed, maintained, and tested annually.

​
