A backflow preventer keeps contaminated water — from irrigation systems, pools, or commercial equipment — from being drawn back into your clean drinking water supply. When one fails, it can put your household and the public water system at risk.

Backflow Preventer FAQs
Do I need a backflow preventer for my sprinkler system?
In most cases, yes. Irrigation lines can siphon fertilizer and soil contaminants back into drinking water without one.
Why is my backflow preventer leaking?
Leaks usually come from worn internal seals or check valves. Many can be rebuilt instead of replaced.
Do you work on commercial backflow devices?
Yes, we install and repair backflow assemblies for commercial properties throughout El Centro and Imperial.
