The Importance of Backflow Prevention
Sydney Water details a number of requirements that are detailed on their website.
Any connection to Sydney Water’s pipes, including fire services, need to be protected by installing backflow prevention devices.
Our process:
We must assess each site to work out its specific backflow containment needs.
We then determine the site’s hazard rating and deduce whether we'll need to install a separate backflow device.
We will then advise you of your backflow requirements and install a backflow prevention device appropriate to your property's hazard rating if needed. We will let you know if the device needs to be tested each year.
Once backflow devices have been installed, only licensed backflow plumbers such as ourselves can test them. Once a test has been done, we will submit the test report to Sydney Water.
What specific backflow device needs to be installed?
Registered Break Tank;
Reduced Pressure Zone Device;
Double Check Valve.
There are three types of backflow protection installation practices:
Containment protection;

Individual Protection.
