Backflow Valve Repair in Montgomery, AL

A failed test is not the end of the device. Most backflow valve repair comes down to rubber and springs.

The common fixes look like this. A check that will not hold 1.0 psid gets a new disc and a cleaned seat. A relief valve that spits on an RPZ gets a new diaphragm or a cleared first check. A test cock that weeps gets replaced, since they are threaded in and cheap. A cracked bonnet on a PVB gets swapped for a new one from the same maker.

Debris causes more repairs than wear. After a main break or hydrant flushing, sand and scale can lodge under a check and fail an assembly that tested fine the year before.

Once repaired, the assembly has to be retested, and the repair is noted on the report that goes to your utility.

Backflow testing FAQs

Questions about backflow testing

Questions we hear most often about Backflow Valve Repair in Montgomery, AL.

Talk to a person
What happens if I miss the backflow test deadline?
Utilities usually send a second notice, and after that some add a fee or schedule a service shutoff. Calling (833) 990-5874 before the deadline is the simplest way to avoid it.
Why is water dripping from my RPZ relief valve?
A steady drip usually means debris is holding the first check open or the relief valve diaphragm is worn. A cleaning or a rebuild kit fixes most cases.
Will my water be off during the test?
Yes, briefly. The tester closes the shutoff valves on the assembly while reading the checks, so water downstream of the device is off until the test is done.
What does a failed backflow test mean?
A check valve or the relief valve did not hold its required pressure differential. The device needs repair or replacement, then a retest before a passing report can be filed.
Do I need an expansion tank after installing a backflow preventer?
Often, yes. The device makes your plumbing a closed system, so heated water cannot expand back to the main and the water heater relief valve may start dripping.
