Backflow Test Report Filing in Lubbock, TX

A passing test that never reaches the utility counts as a missed test. Plenty of property owners in Lubbock, TX learn this from a second notice letter.

Grizzly Backflow & Plumbing connects you with testers who file the report with your water purveyor once the test is done. Many utilities now take submissions through an online portal and charge a small filing fee per device. Others still want the paper form, signed, with the tester's certification number and the test kit's calibration date on it.

The report lists the device make, model, size and serial number, the location, the readings for each check and the relief valve, and whether it passed. A typo in the serial number is the most common reason a report bounces, so testers copy it straight off the body tag.

You get a copy for your own records. Keep it. Some insurers and fire marshals ask for it.

If your utility has flagged a device as overdue, call (833) 990-5874 and mention the notice date so the report can go in quickly.

Backflow testing FAQs

Questions about backflow testing

Questions we hear most often about Backflow Test Report Filing in Lubbock, TX.

Talk to a person
How long does a backflow test take?
A residential PVB or double check test usually takes 20 to 30 minutes. Large commercial and fire line assemblies take longer.
Does my lawn sprinkler system in Lubbock, TX need a backflow preventer?
Almost every US plumbing code requires one on irrigation, since fertilizer, pesticide and standing water at the heads can siphon back. The device type depends on local code and how the system is laid out.
Do I need an expansion tank after installing a backflow preventer?
Often, yes. The device makes your plumbing a closed system, so heated water cannot expand back to the main and the water heater relief valve may start dripping.
How much does backflow testing cost in Lubbock, TX?
Pricing depends on device type, size and the local market. Call (833) 990-5874 for current pricing on backflow testing in Lubbock, TX.
Can a backflow preventer be repaired instead of replaced?
Often it can. Rebuild kits with new discs, springs and seals are sold for most brands. Replacement makes more sense when the body is cracked or parts are no longer made.
