Test Gauge & Backflow Supply

Irrigation Industry

Lawn Sprinkler Irrigation has become more prevalent over the past decade. These systems take domestic supplied water and it is run through a series of underground pipes to outlets also known as rotors. These rotors sit below the ground level when not in use and can be submerged in not only water, but can also be submerged in any contaminants in the grass such as animal feces, insects or fertilizer. The need for backflow protection on these systems is imperative. These contaminants may be backsiphoned into the drinking water supply causing illness to people of all ages and their pets. Test Gauge and Backflow Supply is a stocking distributor of backflow preventers. These backflow preventers protect against backsiphonage.

Plumbing systems, no matter how simple or how complex, all contain connections or arrangements that provide a possible cross connection. A simple hose in a bucket full of chemical lawn fertilizer at someone’s home has a potential for disaster. A variety of commercial facilities utilize water for mixing chemicals as well as for production of their products. Without having a backflow preventer on the domestic water line, workers of that facility or even people outside that facility could be exposed to contaminants that may be harmful or fatal if ingested. These backflow preventers protect against backsiphonage or back pressure. Fire Protection Industry

Fire protection systems are ubiquitous in many domestic as well as commercial and industrial facilities. These fire protection systems not only save properties from potentially burning to the ground, but they save lives as well by containing the fire so people can safely evacuate without harm. All of these fire protection systems have backflow preventers on them to keep added freeze proof chemicals and other contaminants from entering the domestic drinking water supply. Many fire protection systems are out dated as far as their cross connection needs are concerned. Test Gauge and Backflow Supply provides products to completely retrofit backflow assemblies on fire protection systems. Not only can Test Gauge and Backflow Supply provide your materials, hydraulic calculations can also be done as well.
