Backflow Plumbing & Cross Connections
Backflow plumbing systems are designed to keep contaminated water from a client location out of the municipal water system. Anytime the water pressure is higher at a home or business than the pressure of the municipal water system, water can flow backward from the client location to the municipal water system.
If bacteria, viruses, or chemicals contaminate the client’s water system, that contamination can spread to the city’s water supply.
Backflow can happen when something like a water main breaks or a nearby fire hydrant is used, reducing water pressure in the municipal system. This can allow water to flow backward into the municipal water supply or be siphoned from cross connections like garden hoses or irrigation systems.
Suppose there’s a pressurized system at the client’s location, like a chemical tank for a car wash. That pressure can overcome the municipal water pressure and force the contaminated water into the municipal supply.
Backflow preventers use two check valves or a reduced pressure zone to prevent water from flowing backward. Every residential and commercial building in Raleigh needs a backflow prevention device, and specialty plumbing systems like pressurized chemical systems or irrigation systems may require their own backflow preventer.
