Backflow Prevention Installation

Backflow occurs when water moves in the reverse and undesirable direction. For example, if the flow of a sewer line reverses and contaminates a potable water line, this is backflow. Several types of backflow exist in plumbing systems. Siphon backflow happens when the water supply pressure drops too low. Back pressure occurs when the pressure of the unwanted water flow is too high. Sanitary sewer backflow happens when sewage reverses direction and returns to a home or building.

Most of the time, plumbing systems function properly. However, unusual situations, device failure, and sudden pressure changes may cause backflow. At Pipe Surgeons, we install and maintain backflow prevention devices for home and business owners in Port St. Lucie, FL, and the surrounding area.

Backflow prevention devices prevent the backflow of wastewater from sewage pipes. They automatically engage when a flood occurs and the sanitary sewer system contains too much water or the pressure in the sewer line gets too high. They also prevent the backflow of sewage in case of a sewer blockage.
