Backflow Prevention Testing

Certified Backflow Prevention Testing That Keeps Your Water Safe

Protecting the public water supply is critical - and if your property has a backflow prevention device installed, it’s your responsibility to have it tested annually. At The Plumbing Group, we offer licensed and certified backflow prevention testing throughout Noosa & surrounds, ensuring your device is compliant, functional, and properly documented with council.

Backflow Prevention Testing

Backflow prevention testing checks the function and performance of your backflow prevention device. These devices stop contaminated water from reversing into the main supply - a risk that can arise in commercial, industrial, and even residential systems.

Backflow prevention testing is a legal requirement. Our licensed plumbers are endorsed to perform testing, submit reports to your local council, and carry out repairs where necessary.

Why Backflow Prevention Matters

A correctly installed backflow device prevents:

  • Contaminated water entering the drinking supply

  • Chemicals from irrigation systems entering town water

  • Pool water or pond water returning to the water system

  • Sewage or pollutants being drawn back into the mains

Backflow prevention testing ensures these risks are actively managed and your system performs as required.

Where Are Backflow Devices Used?

We perform backflow prevention testing on devices connected to:

  • Fire hose reels

  • Commercial bin wash areas

  • Commercial kitchens

  • Chemical injection points

  • Pool top-up systems

  • Irrigation systems

  • Ornamental ponds

  • Rainwater tanks connected to town water

  • Air conditioning towers

Wherever water could be contaminated, a device is needed — and backflow prevention testing ensures it does its job.
