When would I need to install a backflow device?
If there is a possibility of contamination of the public water supply by your water use, you will be required to have an approved backflow device. Backflow devices are required on all new commercial and agricultural accounts. If you are an existing account and fall into a "high risk" category such as chemical processing, medical and dental facilities, flower grower, etc., you are required to immediately install a backflow device to protect other water users on the system. Please call our office at 858-756-2424 if you have any questions regarding backflow devices.
