Protecting your home’s clean water supply is a critical priority. At Befort Plumbing & Heating, we provide certified backflow testing, repair, and installation services to ensure that contaminated water never flows backward into your drinking water system.

Professional plumbing repairs, installations, and maintenance tailored to your home and budget.
Backflow occurs when a sudden drop in water pressure (caused by things like a nearby fire hydrant being used or a water main break) causes water to flow in the opposite direction. This can “suck” fertilizers, pesticides, or soapy water from your yard or appliances back into your home’s clean water lines.
Annual Backflow Testing: Most Colorado municipalities require annual testing of backflow assemblies. Our certified technicians perform these tests quickly and submit all required paperwork to the city on your behalf.
Backflow Repair: If your device fails its annual test, we can often repair it by replacing internal seals, springs, or check valves, saving you the cost of a full replacement.
New Installations: We install high-quality backflow prevention assemblies for new construction, irrigation upgrades, or to replace aging, non-compliant units.
For residential irrigation and light commercial use, we recommend the Watts 009 Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) Assembly. It provides the highest level of protection by discharging water if a backflow condition occurs.
Best For: High-hazard applications like irrigation or boilers.
Feature: Integrated “Y” pattern design for easy maintenance.

Backflow preventers have internal seals and moving parts that wear out over time. Annual testing ensures the device will actually work during a pressure drop, protecting both your family and the public water supply from contamination.
Common signs include water constantly leaking from the relief valve, a noticeable drop in water pressure throughout your home, or discolored/foul-smelling water coming from your taps.
Yes. Because these devices are often located outdoors, they are susceptible to freezing. We provide winterization services and insulated enclosures to protect your assembly from Colorado’s sub-zero temperatures.
If it fails, we can usually perform an on-site repair by cleaning the internal components or replacing the rubber seals. Once repaired, we re-test the unit immediately to ensure it is compliant.
Our certified technicians handle the entire process. We perform the test and submit the certified results directly to your local water purveyor (like Denver Water or Englewood Utilities) for you.
