Backflow prevention device test
The water authority sets the interval and wants the certificate. Keep the calendar.
- Condition that replaces the interval
- None that replaces the interval. A test needs the device isolated and a calibrated test kit.
- Reading that proves it
- Differential pressure across check valves, relief valve opening point
- Why the interval stays
- Annual testing is required by water authority bylaws and AS/NZS 2845.3 in Australia, and by local plumbing codes in the US and UK.
- Evidence an auditor accepts
- Test certificate per device with the readings, filed with the water authority where required
- First move
- Register every device by serial number and location; a device nobody knows about is the one that fails.
