Commercial Backflow Testing Services
TLC has a dedicated team of plumbers who are certified and experienced in commercial backflow preventers. We test, repair and replace all types of commercial backflow systems. Businesses may have more than one system for different types of water it is important to hire a plumber that is certified and experienced in commercial backflow assembly system testing.
- Domestic Water Backflow Preventer – This type of system prevents backflow for water that is used in a building for normal everyday water.
- Fire Suppression Backflow System – A fire suppression backflow system is designed to keep a building’s fire sprinkler system pressurized and ready in the event of a fire. This system needs to be tested annually to make sure that the system is holding water pressure.
- Irrigation System Backflow – If a commercial property has an irrigation system then a backflow assembly valve is required for this water source. Irrigation systems usually use non-potable water and require a backflow system to keep this water out of the municipal water supply.
Our plumbers are here when you need your backflow testing and repairs.

How do you know you need your backflow system inspected?
Notified By The City Local Water Authority
Typically you are notified by the local water authority that your backflow system is due for its annual inspection/certification. But it is up to you to schedule a backflow test with a certified plumbing company. While annual tests are required for your backflow systems there may be signs you need to have your backflow system tested prior to your next scheduled inspection the signs may be any of the following:
Leaks
If you detect a leak near or at the location of the backlow preventer assembly you should call TLC to have the system inspected.
Changes In Water Pressure
A noticeable change in water pressure in your building should be investigated. TLC can perform an inspection and see if the source of the issue is the backflow preventer.
TLC Backflow Testing Process
1) Schedule An Appointment
When you receive your notice for your annual test call us at (505) 761-9644 or schedule online. We will schedule one of our backflow certified plumbers to perform your test.
2) Perform Your Backflow Test
Our backflow tests typically take about an hour to complete unless there are other issues with the backflow system.
3) If Backflow System Passes Inspection
If the clog is unable to be cleared with the cable machine, our professional plumber will use a line with a specialized camera on the end to view the inside of the drain and locate the problem. At this point, the drain tech will describe the problem and give you options for hydro jetting, descaling, or a possible sewer line repair to fix the problem.
4) If Backflow System Does NOT Pass Inspection
If your backflow prevention system does not pass inspection our plumber will notify you and attempt to repair the backflow. If the unit cannot be repaired it must be replaced. TLC is qualified and experienced in backflow repairs and replacements. Once the repairs have been complete TLC will perform a second test to make sure the system passes the test.
