Keeping your water safe with backflow testing

Backflow occurs when water flows in the opposite direction through your plumbing, allowing contaminated water to seep into your clean water supply. This typically occurs due to pressure changes and poorly managed cross-connections.

 

To minimise this risk, many properties need to have a backflow preventer installed and tested regularly. At Champion Plumbing and Drains, we provide expert backflow prevention and testing for residential and commercial properties across Sydney’s Inner West. We make sure your devices are functioning properly and meet NSW, council, and water authority standards.

Who needs backflow testing and why it’s important

Backflow testing is essential where there’s a chance of contamination entering the drinking water supply. If you have a backflow preventer on your property, regular testing is required by NSW and water authority regulations.

 

This generally applies to:

Commercial and industrial buildings
Blocked drain clearing service icon
Cafes, restaurants, and food establishments
Emergency plumbing service icon
Medical and
dental offices
Shower and hot water service icon
Properties with irrigation systems or fire services
Residential plumbing service icon
Certain residential properties

Annual testing ensures your backflow device is working correctly and helps you stay compliant, reducing the risk of council notices, fines, or service restrictions.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS

Most backflow devices need to be tested every year, but some higher-risk locations might have extra requirements.

Only licensed plumbers who are authorised to perform backflow testing and issue certifications can carry out the tests.

Absolutely! We provide the necessary certification and send the results to the relevant authority when required.

If a device doesn’t pass, we’ll walk you through what went wrong and discuss your repair or replacement options. Once everything is fixed, we’ll retest the device to ensure it meets compliance.

Of course! We offer testing reminders so you won’t miss your annual deadline.
