TO SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM
Backflow refers to the unwanted reverse flow of water or other substances into a potable water system, which can cause contamination. It typically occurs when the water pressure in the system drops unexpectedly, allowing contaminated water from non-potable sources to flow back into the clean water supply. This can happen due to various reasons, such as water main breaks, high water demand, or backpressure. To prevent this, backflow prevention devices are installed in plumbing systems, ensuring water only flows in one direction—from the public water supply into homes or businesses.
