We Make Raleigh HOA Irrigation Repair Simple

The point of your backflow system is to keep the water in your irrigation system from entering your potable water system. The water used in your sprinklers often contains traces of pesticides, fertilizers, and other contaminants. Simply put, it isn't safe for human consumption. When your backflow preventer is working properly, it only allows the water in your irrigation system to travel in one direction - out towards your landscaping, and never in towards your drinking water. However, like any mechanism, backflow systems require maintenance to ensure they're working smoothly. This is especially important in areas that get dry, hot summers, where homeowners will rely on irrigation systems to keep their lawns healthy. Most towns and municipalities require periodic testing to keep drinking water safe. For example: Cary, North Carolina requires that a backflow prevention assembly receive annual testing. Raleigh, North Carolina requires that irrigation systems be tested every three years by a city-approved contractor With guidance from the licensed professionals at Doctor Sprinkler, your property can be healthy, beautiful, and safe for all.
