How often do backflow preventer valves need to be replaced?

Backflow preventer valves should be replaced only when they fail certified testing, are damaged, or cannot be restored by repair. Annual backflow assembly testing confirms their condition and keeps you in code. Our certified technicians test, service, and repair most devices on the spot, then provide written certification and handle county paperwork. If a unit cannot pass after repair, we’ll recommend replacement to avoid fines or water shut-off. We serve homes and businesses in Santa Maria, Nipomo, and Lompoc.
