Utah certifies backflow technicians through the Division of Drinking Water, and utilities in Utah collect reports from certified technicians each year.

Many Utah communities run secondary water, a separate pressurized irrigation system. Any connection between secondary and culinary water is a serious hazard. Winters freeze hard. Grizzly Backflow & Plumbing connects Utah owners with certified testers for cross-connection surveys, irrigation backflow testing and RPZ valve testing. Call (833) 990-5874.

Backflow testing FAQs

Questions about backflow testing

Common questions about backflow testing in Utah.

Talk to a person

What is the difference between an RPZ and a double check valve?

Both have two independent check valves. An RPZ adds a relief valve between the checks that discharges water to atmosphere if the checks leak, which is why it is required on high-hazard connections.

How long does a backflow test take?

A residential PVB or double check test usually takes 20 to 30 minutes. Large commercial and fire line assemblies take longer.

Does my lawn sprinkler system in Utah need a backflow preventer?

Almost every US plumbing code requires one on irrigation, since fertilizer, pesticide and standing water at the heads can siphon back. The device type depends on local code and how the system is laid out.

Is fire sprinkler backflow testing different?

Yes. Along with the standard check valve test, NFPA 25 calls for an annual forward flow test on fire line backflow assemblies. Results often go to both the water utility and the fire authority.

Can a backflow preventer be repaired instead of replaced?

Often it can. Rebuild kits with new discs, springs and seals are sold for most brands. Replacement makes more sense when the body is cracked or parts are no longer made.
