BACKFLOW PREVENTION:

What is backflow? Backflow is a reversal of the normal direction of flow within a piping system.  A backflow preventer is a device that is installed on a piping system that allows water to flow in one direction but never in the opposite direction.  Its sole job is to prevent drinking water from being contaminated due to backflow.

What is the law?

Ohio Administrative Code Chapter 3745-95 requires public water suppliers to protect their water systems from cross-connections and prevent backflow situations.  Public water suppliers must perform cross-connection control inspections of their water customers' property to evaluate cross-connection hazards and ensure containment devices are tested annually.

How to comply:

Residential Compliance- All residential irrigation systems must have an approved, testable device that is tested annually (before June 30th), and the results sent to BSI Online.  All irrigation systems must have a Pressure Vacuum Breaker (PVR). 

Commercial Compliance- All commercial properties are required to have a Reduced Pressure (RP) device on the domestic water service.  All fire systems require a Double Check Valve (DCV).  All backflow devices must be tested annually, and the results sent to BSI Online.
