How often do backflow preventer valves need to be replaced?

There is no set replacement interval. Replace a backflow preventer when testing or inspection shows it cannot be reliably repaired. Actual lifespan varies with water quality, pressure, usage, and maintenance. Many units last years if serviced, but frequent failures, leaks, or corrosion shorten life. We handle testing and replacement in Kokomo and nearby cities.

Quick checks:

• Schedule routine testing and inspections.
• Replace if it fails tests and parts are worn or obsolete.
• Watch for leaks, rust, sticking relief valves, or contaminated-water odors.
