Septic tanks are underground wastewater treatment structures used in areas that lack access to centralized sewer systems. These units use a Water distribution systems are designed to direct the water flow in a particular direction. The flow typically starts at the distribution system and ends with the consumer. But sometimes, hydraulic conditions inside the system deviate from the norm and cause the water to flow in the wrong direction. Water flowing in the opposite direction is called backflow, a dangerous situation that can lead to contamination with different pollutants.
Typically backflow is caused by cross-connections that allow the contaminants to enter the drinking water system. For example, the tank’s water pressure may be lower than the water system’s pressure. Therefore, the contaminated water is pulled into the system. Backpressure is another cause of backflow, which occurs when a fire protection system or multi-story building experiences high water pressure. Again, this occurrence forces the contaminated water into the system.
What is a backflow prevention device and why you need one
A backflow prevention device is crucial for every water pump system, especially for fire prevention systems. These devices keep the water from flowing back into the system by ensuring it can only flow in one direction regardless of the conditions. These devices act like traffic directors for water to ensure everything moves in the proper path. Water pressure changes won’t impact the flow direction when there is a backflow prevention device installed. The preventer will activate as soon as the water pressure changes.
It’s essential to have this device because it prevents water contamination with toxins associated with chlorine, human waste, E. coli, pesticides, fertilizers, soap, and others. It’s also necessary to have the preventer in homes that operate with a well-water system since they have higher contamination risks.
Gilbert homeowners who wish to keep their water systems safe from backflows and contamination should invest in a high-quality backflow prevention device.
