FEBCO is an American company which makes FEBCO backflow preventers and backflow prevention assemblies, and they are among the industry leaders in backflow technology.

Backflow prevention assemblies are installed to protect the potable water supply in a community against pollutants caused by cross-connection problems in a water system, and those cross-connection problems are usually related to backflow.

What is backflow?

As the name suggests, backflow occurs when the water in your water system reverses direction in its flow and flows back towards the potable water supply, carrying with it pollutants already dumped into that water by home use.  Hazards usually associated with backflow are irrigation systems, hoses, a secondary source of water, swimming pools, or even a lake or pond.

A backflow prevention assembly, normally called a backflow preventer or a backflow device, will protect your home and the city’s potable water supply by not allowing the water to reverse direction.  Typical backflow preventers used are double check valve assemblies, a backflow valve, reduced pressure zone assemblies, single check valve assemblies, an air gap, and other combinations of valves and gaps, depending on the size of the potential problem.

ZEBCO backflow preventers have recently been redesigned for superior performance.  Just some of the ZEBCO features are:

• Casted stainless steel internal components for extended valve life and reduced maintenance
• Superior stainless steel check valve design
• Compact N-patterns available for tight corner installations
• Small form factor reduces enclosure size
• N-pattern valve setters
• Lead-free construction to comply with Federal lead-free plumbing regulations.

No expense has been spared in the construction of the ZEBCO backflow prevention assemblies, and because of that philosophy they have become one of the trusted leaders in their industry.

So here’s what you should do.

Each year you not only should but you must have an annual backflow inspection by a certified backflow technician. This is non-negotiable and it is required by most city, state, and most definitely federal areas.  So you call a backflow technician, one like City Backflow Testing in the Dallas area, and you ask if that technician/installer uses ZEBCO products.  When dealing with backflow it is silly to shop around for better deals on inferior products, so ask about ZEBCO, and insist that your technician installs only ZEBCO products when he/she is working on your back flow preventer.

That way you’ll sleep better at night, your neighbors will sleep better at night, and all will be right in your world.

ZEBCO, the very best in backflow preventers.

City Backflow Testing, the very best in backflow testing, inspection, and installation in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, with backflow testing certification.   Put them together and you have the very best in backflow preventers and the very best in the installation of those backflow devices, and that means for one solid year you can rest assured that your home and potable water supply is protected.

Ask yourself this one question: doesn’t your family deserve the very best in safety precautions?

Of course they do.
