What Does a Backflow Preventer Do?

The water entering your home from the main water supply line should always flow in one direction. When pressure fluctuates in your pipes, the result can be backflow into the main water supply line. This can cause all kinds of hazardous contaminants to enter your drinking water, including fertilizers, human waste, chlorine, and soap scum. A backflow prevention system is a unique device that keeps backflow problems from affecting your main water supply line. After being installed on the pipe, the backflow preventer will monitor water flow and stop the flow of water, should it detect backflow into the main water supply. This ensures that you stay safe and protected, all year long!

I had their electricians come put in a new meter, panel with upgraded service line, and EV chargers as part of a larger home renovation.

Joseph came out for the quote, and he was fantastic. He took the time to understand what I am looking to get done and used his knowledge and expertise to dial in what I need. On the day of install, he and Jeremy came out, and that experience was again fantastic. Their work is beautiful with some strong OCD (good electrician behavior), and they again took time to answer some other questions I had and used their knowledge and expertise to give some solid advice for other aspects of my renovation.

5/5 will absolutely use them again when I have work to be done.

Update- had some gas work done, with
