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!

Sean (electrician) thoroughly addressed my concerns, he even went above and beyond to check additional possible electrical issues in my home. He even accommodated my limited schedule, even though I'm sure it wasn't really convenient for him. I'm very pleased with the high-quality service and truly knowledgeable professionals employed by Genz-Ryan (had a full furnace and AC installation). I'll continue to be a loyal customer, especially with some big future projects. :)

Genz-Ryan has been my go-to subcontractor for home services since 2018, it started in 2018 with my first custom-home. They have always been professional, respectful, not the cheapest, but in my opinion, the quality with their tech’s has been there, frankly, its hard to find good sub-contractors that deliver on quality these years. I highly recommend Genz-Ryan for HVAC/Plumbing work, they’ve been phenomenal. I cannot say enough good things about them. If you want quality, and not the cheapest, they’re the ones you call. They’re fantastic.

Recently I had 3 gentlemen by the names of Jacob P, Mario F, and Sean L in my home to replace my a/c unit and my furnace. I was very pleased with their work and it was done in a very timely matter. They were very respectful while in my home. Thank you for your great services!
