The Virginia Construction Code requires backflow prevention assemblies to be tested by a certified tester.
Because backflow-prevention assemblies are mechanical assemblies that can fail, the TCEQ requires testing of all backflow-prevention assemblies at installation by a TCEQ-licensed tester.
Backflow is when contaminated water has reversed flow and entered clean water lines. It can occur at any cross-connection between clean and dirty water lines and is typically caused by a docHub change in water pressure such as from a burst water main.
Backflow testing is a plumbing service that checks your backflow preventer device by assessing its pressure levels. When backflow is present, untreated or contaminated water can be back-siphoned into your clean water. For this reason, testing guarantees the water you use for drinking and showering is safe and sterile.
If during the test we find that water continues to flow through the these shut-offs, the test cannot be completed and it would result in a failed test. Many contractors will tell you this assembly might need to be replaced, but likely just the shut-off valve would need to be replaced.

Backflow prevention systems are devices installed onto a pipe that only allow water to flow in one direction. Think of it as a one-way gate that allows water from the citys public water supply to flow into your homes piping but stops water if and when it ever tries to flow backwards into the main water supply.
During a backflow test, a certified backflow tester will determine if your BPD is up to code and test to see if your plumbing system is experiencing any backflow. To do this, the tester will connect a special backflow testing kit to the BPD and monitor gauges to see if there is any change in pressure.
Generally, this includes establishing requirements for the installation of backflow assemblies or devices preventing the flows or back-siphonage from unwanted connections that may threaten public health. TCEQ requires all backflow devices or assemblies: Must be tested upon installation and at least once annually.
