Annual backflow testing, documentation, and filing with the Region of Halton - handled start to finish by FDR Plumbing.
No obligation · Fast response · Serving Milton & Halton
Backflow happens when water flows in reverse through your plumbing system. When that occurs, contaminated water - from irrigation lines, industrial processes, or commercial kitchen equipment - can enter the public drinking supply. It's a serious public health risk, and it's why Ontario municipalities require annual testing and certification for properties with backflow preventers.
In Halton Region, most commercial properties with an irrigation system, fire suppression system, commercial kitchen, car wash, or medical facility are required to have their backflow preventer tested annually. The test results must be documented and filed with the municipality - failure to comply can result in fines or, in serious cases, a notice to disconnect from the water supply.
FDR handles the full process: schedule, test, document, and file the report with the Region of Halton on your behalf. Business owners receive a certificate for their records so you're covered for your next health inspection or property audit.
