NYC Backflow Prevention Device Installation & Testing

NYC Annual Testing Requirements

Every backflow prevention device requires inspection by a licensed tester before initial use and annually thereafter. Missing these deadlines results in violations and potential fines from the Department of Environmental Protection.

Our testing services include:

• Licensed Backflow Prevention Device Tester inspections
• Custom software tracking for all device information
• DEP filing and documentation
• Automatic reminders a month before due dates

Which Backflow Preventer Does Your Building Need?

RPZ Backflow Preventer: Required for high-hazard applications. Features dual check valves and a relief valve for maximum protection against back siphonage.

Double Check Valve Assembly (DCVA): Approved for lower-risk installations where space constraints exist.

Our staff engineers assess your building’s specific requirements and handle all design submissions to the Department of Environmental Protection.
