Backflow refers to the unwanted reversal of water flow in your plumbing system, which can lead to contamination of your potable water supply. It’s crucial to understand the different types of backflow to protect your water from pollutants and contaminants.
- Backpressure Backflow: This occurs when the downstream pressure is greater than the upstream or supply pressure in your potable water system.
- Back Siphonage: Caused by negative pressure in your potable water system, back siphonage happens when there is a stoppage of water supply, such as a break in a water main.
