Why Backflow Testing Matters in Nevada

Nevada’s unique environment — from urban centers like Las Vegas and Reno to rural desert communities — relies heavily on safe, dependable water systems. Backflow prevention assemblies protect against contamination caused by irrigation, commercial plumbing, and high-demand water use. Annual testing ensures compliance, protects public health, and prevents costly penalties for property owners.
