How Backflow Compliance Filing Works
Iowa water authorities require annual backflow prevention assembly testing for properties with cross-connection hazards. Here's the process:
You Receive a Notice
your water authority sends a letter identifying your property's backflow assembly and the test deadline. You have 30–60 days to comply.
We Schedule Your Test
Call (563) 200-7805 or submit the form. We confirm your assembly type, schedule the test — usually same-week — and come to your property at a convenient time.
On-Site Certified Testing
We test your backflow prevention assembly using calibrated, state-approved gauges. The test takes 20–30 minutes for most single-device properties.
Same-Day online filing Filing
Your passing test result is filed online that same day. Your water authority receives it immediately. You're compliant — done.
