  • Having a backflow preventer on garden and lawn watering irrigation systems is a measure implemented in an effort to ensure a safe drinking water supply for water customers. Basically, these mechanical devices aim to ensure the city water moves in one direction into your property, preventing a reversal of flow, back-siphonage, and cross-connections that may cause a contaminated flow of water from getting into the clean drinking water supply in the event of plumbing problems such as a drop in water pressure.

    Having a backflow device on your yard’s sprinkler system is mandatory in many Kansas communities. While regulations around them may differ slightly, when it comes to backflow testing, Wichita, KS area residents need a trusted and certified professional to handle the testing process for your drip irrigation or sprinkler system, and that’s where The Grounds Guys come in!

    Our team is fully trained and licensed by local communities to inspect, test and repair backflow devices on sprinkler or lawn watering irrigation systems. Whether you need a routine assessment or your system rebuilt, our Wichita backflow testing and repair specialists will ensure you have a safe potable water supply system for your garden.

    Your Wichita backflow testing service will generally follow these steps: first, our certified testers will turn off the downstream shut off valve on your device and place a test kit on your device. After waiting a few minutes, the water will be turned on, with the test ensuring that the device is functioning properly, and the water pressure is at an acceptable level. Following the test, we’ll remove the kit, turn back on the downstream valve, and start the water up again. We’ll register the results of the test with your city, ensuring you remain in compliance with any city mandate for backflow testing. Wichita, KS residents can also count on us to perform any repairs on your backflow prevention device as needed.

Your city may send out a notice letter to alert you when you need testing done.
