Backflow prevention protects your drinking water from contamination. If contaminated water flows back into the mains supply it can affect your household and the wider community.
What is a backflow prevention device?
A mechanical device fitted to a water supply line that stops water flowing in the wrong direction. Different hazard ratings exist depending on the risk level of the property or appliance.
