About Grizzly Backflow & Plumbing

Backflow Testing Company in Anchorage, AK Near Me

In Alaska, backflow prevention starts with keeping the device warm. Most assemblies in Anchorage, AK sit indoors in a heated mechanical room, because an outdoor RPZ would not survive a single January night.

Indoor placement brings its own checks. An RPZ relief valve needs a drain that can handle a full discharge, and a utility room with no floor drain is a common install problem. Grizzly Backflow & Plumbing connects Anchorage, AK owners with testers for annual backflow testing, RPZ valve testing and freeze protection on any device that has to live outside. Call (833) 990-5874.

Backflow testing FAQs

Questions about backflow testing

Questions Anchorage, AK property owners ask about backflow testing and backflow prevention.

Talk to a person
How often does a backflow preventer need testing in Anchorage, AK?
Most water utilities require a test once a year. Many also require one at installation, after any repair and after the device is moved. Your utility's notice letter gives the exact due date.
What is the difference between an RPZ and a double check valve?
Both have two independent check valves. An RPZ adds a relief valve between the checks that discharges water to atmosphere if the checks leak, which is why it is required on high-hazard connections.
How long does a backflow test take?
A residential PVB or double check test usually takes 20 to 30 minutes. Large commercial and fire line assemblies take longer.
Do I need an expansion tank after installing a backflow preventer?
Often, yes. The device makes your plumbing a closed system, so heated water cannot expand back to the main and the water heater relief valve may start dripping.
Can a backflow preventer be repaired instead of replaced?
Often it can. Rebuild kits with new discs, springs and seals are sold for most brands. Replacement makes more sense when the body is cracked or parts are no longer made.
