A backflow preventer is a valve assembly that keeps water from flowing backward from your property into the public water supply. Without one, a pressure drop could pull water from an irrigation system, boiler, or commercial equipment back into the drinking water lines. Local water purveyors, such as Greater Cincinnati Water Works, generally require these devices on certain connections and require them to be tested regularly, usually once a year. Requirements vary by purveyor, so check the notice you received or ask your water provider.
