Fire Sprinkler Backflow Testing in Las Vegas, NV

Fire lines usually carry a double check detector assembly (DCDA) or a reduced pressure detector assembly (RPDA). The bypass meter on the side catches small leaks or unauthorized use without slowing water during a fire.

Fire sprinkler backflow testing has two jobs. The backflow test checks each valve against its required differential, like any other assembly. NFPA 25 also calls for an annual forward flow test at system demand, which proves the assembly will pass the water the sprinklers need.

Assemblies on fire lines are often 4 to 10 inches, and many sit in vaults or riser rooms. Shutting one down takes coordination, because the building is without sprinkler protection during the test. Building owners usually notify the alarm monitoring company before work starts.

The report often goes to two places: the water purveyor and the local fire authority.

Grizzly Backflow & Plumbing connects Las Vegas, NV building owners with testers who handle fire line backflow prevention testing and paperwork. Call (833) 990-5874.

Backflow testing FAQs

Questions about backflow testing

Questions we hear most often about Fire Sprinkler Backflow Testing in Las Vegas, NV.

Talk to a person
What happens if I miss the backflow test deadline?
Utilities usually send a second notice, and after that some add a fee or schedule a service shutoff. Calling (833) 990-5874 before the deadline is the simplest way to avoid it.
What does a failed backflow test mean?
A check valve or the relief valve did not hold its required pressure differential. The device needs repair or replacement, then a retest before a passing report can be filed.
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.
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.
