At Coastal Carolina Plumbing, we specialize in back-flow prevention devices, providing installation, repair, and maintenance services to protect your home or business from dangerous water contamination. Backflow occurs when water from your plumbing system flows in the opposite direction, potentially allowing pollutants or contaminants to enter your drinking water supply. Installing a back-flow prevention device is the best way to ensure that your water remains clean, safe, and free from harmful substances.

What is Back-Flow? Backflow is a plumbing issue that occurs when water flows backward into your potable water supply, which can happen due to changes in water pressure. This can happen when there’s a sudden drop in water pressure (such as during a main line break) or when water from an external source (like a sprinkler system, swimming pool, or industrial equipment) flows back into the drinking water system. Without a back-flow prevention device, hazardous substances such as pesticides, chemicals, or sewage can contaminate your water supply, posing serious health risks.

Back-Flow Prevention Devices: Backflow prevention devices are essential for protecting your home or business from the dangers of water contamination. These devices are installed in your plumbing system to ensure that water only flows in one direction, preventing any backflow into your pipes. Common types of back-flow prevention devices include:

• Check Valves: These valves allow water to flow only in one direction, preventing backflow if pressure drops in the system.
• Double Check Valve Assemblies (DCVA): These are commonly used in residential systems to prevent backflow by using two independent check valves.
• Reduced Pressure Zone Devices (RPZ): These are typically installed in commercial or industrial systems and provide an extra layer of protection by lowering the pressure of the water in the system to prevent backflow.

We offer high-quality, reliable back-flow devices to suit the specific needs of your property, whether it’s a home, commercial building, or industrial facility.

Back-Flow Device Installation: Installing a back-flow prevention device is crucial for maintaining the safety of your water supply. Our expert plumbers will evaluate your plumbing system and recommend the appropriate device based on your water usage and the specific risks to your water supply. We handle the entire installation process, ensuring the device is set up properly to function effectively and meet local building codes.

Back-Flow Device Testing & Certification: In many areas, back-flow devices need to be tested regularly to ensure they are functioning properly. Coastal Carolina Plumbing offers testing and certification services for back-flow devices, ensuring your device meets all regulatory requirements and continues to protect your water supply. Our licensed plumbers perform thorough tests to check for leaks, pressure imbalances, or other issues that could affect the performance of your device.

Back-Flow Device Repair & Maintenance: Like any other plumbing component, back-flow prevention devices require periodic maintenance to ensure they continue to operate effectively. Our team provides back-flow device repairs and routine maintenance to keep your system in top working order. We can replace worn-out seals, clean debris from valves, and inspect the device to prevent any potential backflow issues.
