Commercial Backflow Testing

Reliable Backflow Testing Services for Businesses & Commercial Properties

Commercial facilities in Vancouver are required to undergo annual backflow testing to ensure their backflow prevention devices are functioning properly. This critical service helps protect the municipal water system from contamination caused by backflow — the reversal of water flow due to pressure changes.

At Backflow Testing Vancouver, we specialize in certified testing, inspection, and compliance reporting for all types of commercial properties. Whether you're managing a retail store, office building, medical clinic, or industrial site, our licensed technicians provide timely and efficient testing services that meet all city and provincial requirements.

Why Is Commercial Backflow Testing Important?

Backflow prevention devices protect the public water supply by stopping contaminants from entering clean drinking water lines. In commercial properties, testing is required to:

  • Prevent water contamination risks
  • Maintain City of Vancouver water compliance
  • Avoid fines or shutdowns from failed inspections
  • Ensure system integrity and public safety

Who Requires Annual Backflow Testing?

The City of Vancouver mandates that any commercial property with an installed backflow prevention device must have it tested once every 12 months by a certified backflow tester. This includes:

  • Restaurants and commercial kitchens
  • Dental offices, medical clinics, and labs
  • Warehouses and manufacturing plants
  • Retail spaces with irrigation or HVAC systems
  • Strata buildings and apartment complexes
  • Schools, gyms, and public facilities
