Many Vermont homes use private wells, so backflow testing in Vermont centers on businesses, schools and properties on public water systems regulated by the state.

Deep frost keeps devices indoors. Farms, maple operations and ski areas can have cross-connections with process and wash water. Grizzly Backflow & Plumbing connects Vermont property owners with testers for commercial backflow testing, cross-connection surveys and backflow enclosure and freeze protection. Call (833) 990-5874.

Backflow testing FAQs

Questions about backflow testing

Common questions about backflow testing in Vermont.

Talk to a person

How often does a backflow preventer need testing in Vermont?

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.

Why is water dripping from my RPZ relief valve?

A steady drip usually means debris is holding the first check open or the relief valve diaphragm is worn. A cleaning or a rebuild kit fixes most cases.

What is a cross-connection?

Any point where drinking water piping can come into contact with a non-potable source. Common examples are a hose in a bucket, a boiler fill line and an irrigation system.

Who sends the test report to the water utility?

The tester usually files it, either on the utility's paper form or through its online portal. Ask for a copy for your own records.

Is fire sprinkler backflow testing different?

Yes. Along with the standard check valve test, NFPA 25 calls for an annual forward flow test on fire line backflow assemblies. Results often go to both the water utility and the fire authority.
