The short answer

In Glen Allen, 4% 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 Glen Allen, where 4% 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 Glen Allen, VA

Glen Allen is in Henrico County, Virginia. Its ZIP code is 23060. We route backflow testing calls from 23060.

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.
