By federal law, it is required that all backflow devices be tested annually. This must be performed by a certified backflow tester.

All testing and repair costs are to be met by the consumer.

Why Is Testing Important?

It is important to test backflow devices to make sure they are performing the necessary job of preventing herbicides, chemicals, and waste products from entering your drinking water. The entire community relies on the proper chemical makeup of the water coming from the treatment plant.

Though some homeowners find this task to be too much, the safety of your drinking water relies on the proper function of these devices. If any of these chemicals are ingested, they can cause serious illness and even death.

What Is the Testing Process?

The testing process of backflow prevention devices is quite detailed, but the general process can be explained fairly easily. The tester turns off the shutoff valve and checks all of the test cocks for proper function and flow. Then, a test kit is inserted at various valves and cocks. The tester then takes a reading of each check valve. Pressure gauges are used for differential pressure readings. Leaks and other problems are detected when readings are extreme.

What Is Backflow?

Backflow occurs when water flows in the opposite direction than intended in a plumbing or irrigation system. A backflow preventer keeps the drinking water safe by keeping chemicals and waste from entering the water supply.

If it is time for your annual backflow testing, call Nixco Plumbing Inc. to set up an appointment. We can also answer any additional questions you may have about backflow and the importance of testing. Do your part to keep our community healthy through prompt testing as required.

If you are ever concerned that your backflow devices may have leaks, we can also perform additional testing. The great part is that we can fix any problems that we find, whereas other certified backflow testers do not provide solutions to common problems. We have the experience and training to perform an accurate backflow test.

Are you in need of backflow testing and certification? Call (513) 457-0915 to schedule an appointment with our experts today.

Neyer (Nixco) Plumbing came out to fix my bathtub drain. Making the appointment was very easy, and they came out the same day. Dre came to repair my drain and he was highly skilled, friendly and a very nice guy. He was very upfront detailing the potential costs (fortunately, I just needed a new trip lever, so it was a very quick fix! I will definitely use this plumber again for all of my plumbing needs!

Chris did an excellent job installing a new backflow preventer, response was excellent, communication was excellent. Office staff was great. Price was a bit higher than I thought it should be for labor but I typically do my own work.

Installed a new water heater a few years ago. Best experience ever. Had them replace a dishwasher. Both times the tech has been wonderful! Scheduling is simple. Prices are reasonable and I feel good supporting a small business that treats its employees well. Will use them over and over again! Updated 2026- still using this wonderful company. Shawn was out today to fix a toilet and did a great job and on time.

Nixco plumbing Shawn C. from Nixco came out and replaced the dual check valve and the PRV at the main water line coming into the house. Shawn also replaced three lavatory faucets for us. He was very conscientious about his work and he did double check everything again after he was done. He went over and beyond answering questions we had. We will definitely ask for Shawn again when calling Nixco for future repairs.

Dre cane to check out my hot water heater which as I suspected needed to be replaced. He came on time, answered all my questions, completed the work and cleaned up his mess! Even the wheels on the dolly he used to carry the hot water heater were covered!😃. He tightened my kitchen faucet, too. Nixco came highly recommended, and I will definitely use them again.

Although not a big emergency, we used the after hours service for a clogged disposal as we were having guests for dinner. We were contacted in a timely manner. John was professional, friendly and not phased by the flurry of activity in the kitchen around him. Pricing was discussed upfront The job was finished and cleaned up promptly.

Both Mason and Audie were very professional and took the time to answer all my questions. I would highly recommend both gentlemen and Nixco Plumbing the next time you need a plumber.

Every service call we’ve had with NixCo Plumbing has been extremely professional. Called on Tuesday, Mason W and Kris B were out on Wednesday to provide estimates for what we thought was a serious water pressure issue raised by our RO water company. They tested and explained why their finding wasn’t as serious as we were told. There are items we have to discuss with our HOA before making any repairs/adding a pressure valve but I am extremely confident that NixCo will do a great job. There were a few other items we wanted estimates for (two leaky faucets, bathroom remodel/shut off valves needed and corrosion on water main). Mason and Kris checked those items out, explained what the work involved would require, then gave estimates for those as well. Very appreciative of their time and professionalism.

We experienced a water backup in the kitchen sink after not being in the home for almost 3 weeks. The kitchen was mostly flooded and the water seeped into the carpet of the dining and living rooms in the open concept condo. A neighbor recommended Nixco. We come down from Michigan, so were glad to get a recommendation. We called them and they sent Shawn out. Shawn was super friendly and professional! He saw the mess and also arranged for a restoration company right away. Shawn and his collegue did a wonderful job explaining what happened, fixing the issue, cleaning up and making sure that everything was left perfectly, including making us feel comfortable with the process! I would highly recommend Nixco, and especially Shawn! Thank you, guys!!
