Clean water keeps your business operating. Dries Plumbing has been testing and maintaining backflow devices across central Illinois since 1933. We handle everything from annual inspections to emergency repairs.
State law requires annual testing of backflow devices for most commercial buildings. We test your system and submit compliance paperwork to regulatory agencies, ensuring that no deadlines are missed, no water shutoffs occur, and no fines are incurred.
Our service area covers restaurants, office buildings, manufacturing facilities, and retail spaces throughout the region.
Backflow devices prevent contaminated water from mixing with your clean water supply. Testing confirms these devices work correctly under varying pressure conditions.
We check valve operation, pressure differentials, and system integrity. Devices that fail get repaired immediately or replaced with new equipment.
Skip your annual test and face water service cuts plus penalty fees. We maintain testing schedules for all clients and send renewal notices 30 days before the scheduled renewal date.
Why Choose Dries Plumbing for Your Backflow Test?
