Backflow Testing
Annual Backflow Testing
All Houston property owners with irrigation systems are required to have their backflow (PVB) prevention devices tested annually by a TCEQ-licensed professional and city approved back flow tester, like Stirling Electric & Irrigation. This mandatory testing protects our city's water supply from contamination and ensures your property remains compliant with Texas regulations. Additionally, failure to comply with the annual backflow assembly testing requirement can result in fines up to $2,000 per day or water service disconnection. Property owners are fully responsible for ensuring their irrigation systems meet Houston's Cross Connection Control Program requirements.
WE TEST. WE SUBMIT. YOU'RE COMPLIANT.
