Free to homeowners in Lafayette — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.

The short answer

In Lafayette, 8% of buildings have twenty or more units. A containment assembly protects the public main and is tested on the purveyor’s schedule; the certificate reaching the purveyor is what the test is for.

Backflow testing is about the public main. In Lafayette, where 8% of buildings have twenty or more units, that usually means a service-entry assembly on a modest building.

What this site is

CrossConnect is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect property owners and managers with independent contractors. Backflow assembly testing is normally restricted to testers holding a specific certification and using calibrated equipment, and the report usually has to reach your water purveyor — ask to see the certification and ask who files the report. We carry out no testing, we certify nobody, we do not set prices, and we never charge callers anything. Nothing here selects a device for any installation or states that any assembly is passing.

Backflow Testing coverage in Lafayette, LA

Lafayette is in Lafayette Parish County, Louisiana. It covers 12 ZIP codes: 70501, 70502, 70503, 70504, 70505, 70506, 70507, 70508, 70509, 70593, 70596, 70598. We route backflow testing calls from every one of them.

Who requires the test

The water purveyor requires it, on a schedule it sets, usually annually. The plumber performs it; the certificate goes to the purveyor, and keeping a copy is the customer’s problem.

Containment, not isolation

A containment assembly at the service entry protects the public main from the building. An isolation assembly inside protects the building from one fixture. They are tested separately and the certificates are not interchangeable.
