Who is responsible for installing a backflow prevention device?
Property owners must hire a Licensed Master Plumber to install a backflow prevention device. Tenants are not responsible for managing the installation or maintenance of backflow prevention devices.
Will my property need more than one backflow prevention device?
If your property is required to have a backflow prevention device and has multiple water service lines, you must install a device on each line.
I received an order to install a backflow prevention. The 30-day installation period has nearly expired. How can I avoid a Notice of Violation?
As long as DEP has certification in writing from a Licensed Master Plumber (LMP), Professional Engineer (PE) or Registered Architect (RA) that a device is in the process of being installed, you will not receive a Notice of Violation.
