Understanding Backflow Preventors
A backflow preventor is a vital part of any fire sprinkler system, designed to prevent the backward flow of water. This is crucial in commercial fire sprinkler installations, where the water is non-potable and its reverse flow can pose significant health risks. A backflow preventor's role is to keep hazardous particulates and chemicals out of the drinking water system, to keep the surrounding residents safe and healthy.
Regular Testing and Maintenance
Annual testing and regular maintenance of backflow preventors are crucial, particularly in the diverse architectural landscapes of Seattle and Bellevue. Testing is accomplished by connecting hoses to the "test cocks" and allowing water to pass in a particular order. A competent professional will know if there is a problem that required maintenance or repair.
