Ashokan Backflow is a great company. They are dedicated to making you understand the backflow testing process and how they protect the city's drinking water supply. Efficient, timely and reasonably, priced, youll NEVER receive another violation for not testing your devices. Give them your business and you'll be happy you did.

After a bad experience with another backflow testing service, I found ashokan. I am thrilled with their annual backflow testing plan as well.

Questions & Answers

How do I know if I need a Reduced Pressure Zone or a Double Check Valve?

Donna Shore | Oct 28, 2021

The threat level posed by dangerous, toxic or objectionable substances that exist inside your building will determine which type of backflow device you need. Most buildings require an RPZ on their domestic supply lines and a DCDA (double check detector assembly) or RPDA (reduced pressure zone detector assembly) on the fire/sprinkler supply lines. The DCV is the recommended solution for low hazard conditions and the RPZ is the recommended solution for high hazard conditions, since it has a relief valve that will dump contaminated water down the drain vs. siphoning it out of your building. Your inspector will determine which type of device is required for your property.

Am I required to have a back flow device installed?

Every building inside the five boroughs of NYC is required to install primary backflow preventers on each water main that feeds the property. If you have a fire/sprinkler system in place, you’ll need to install a primary backflow preventer immediately downstream from the DEP meter or fire/sprinkler supply branch. *Please be aware that a DEP “Order to install a Backflow Preventer” provides a finite period of time to complete the work before a violation is issued. If you ignore it, the DEP can and will shut the water to your entire building.

Do this company have plumbers that put on water to house licence to do so

What do you mean? Do you need a water meter or a domestic water service?
