Backflow Prevention Melbourne

Backflow Prevention Services Melbourne

It's possible you have never really thought about backflow prevention and its significance in your plumbing system. Why would you, unless you encounter a plumbing issue that relies on backflow prevention? MPM Plumbing can provide information, advice, and installation of this crucial plumbing device. So what is it? Basically, backflow prevention is a vital component of modern plumbing and is a fundamental safeguard designed to maintain the integrity, safety, and health of our water supply. Our qualified plumbers have been installing backflow prevention devices and mechanisms in households, businesses, and commercial properties across Melbourne. Backflow prevention stops the undesirable reversal of water flow, which can lead to contamination of clean water with potentially hazardous substances creating water that does not taste pleasant and can be harmful to your health.

Backflow prevention installation, repair, and testing

MPM Plumbing is dedicated to implementing and maintaining these essential safeguards to protect homes and businesses from the potential risks associated with cross-connection within your water supply and its delivery to your taps and outlets. We all deserve a safe, clean, and healthy water supply for use in our daily lives and essential water needs. Should your existing backflow prevention fail to function correctly, our skilled technicians will identify the issue and offer the most suitable and cost-effective solution to have it restored to optimal working order. Common backflow prevention devices include preventer valves, air gaps, and reduced pressure zone (RPZ) devices to help prevent the reversal of water flow and contamination of your water supply.

Smart toilets and backflow prevention

Smart toilets are becoming a popular addition to Australian homes, with their advanced features offering bidet functions, integrated cleaning systems, and automatic flushing. However, with these features comes the potential for backflow risks if not correctly controlled. Backflow prevention is imperative when smart toilets are installed to protect your plumbing system and your potable water supply. The backflow prevention device will be installed near the connection point where the smart toilet and water supply connect.

Classifications of backflow prevention devices

To ensure you have the correct backflow prevention device installed you will need expert advice from an accredited plumber, who will assess your property's hazard rating to determine the appropriate backflow device to be installed. The classifications are as follows:

High Hazard - Any condition, device, or practice in connection to a drinking water supply has the potential to cause death

Medium Hazard - Any condition, device, or practice in connection to a drinking water supply system has the potential to endanger health

Low Hazard - Any condition, device, or practice in connection to a drinking water supply system constitutes a nuisance but does not endanger health.
