Backflows Unlimited, Inc.

Well as we hire them yearly

The service technician was on time and courteous, he was also very knowledgeable about the sprinkler system. The visit was short and I was very satisfied with the work provided. Backflows Unlimited also offered the cheapest price for the test of the four companies I found since it included the $25 fee to Warren County.

They came to my house to perform the annual backflow inspection, which is required, by the county for sprinkler systems. They were prompt, and got down to work, but immediately told me the unit may need to be replaced. Upon inspection it was determined the valve that screws onto the backflow preventer was cracked and leaking water. He said they could be cracked when they are winterized if someone did not winterize the sprinkler system properly and left some water in the unit. When I advised him I take the unit off and put it in my basement then he put a new valve on the unit, and finished the test. The unit passed and the new valve cost me $25, which is a bit more than it would cost at a supply place, but he had one on his truck. I'm skeptical as the valve should not of been broken as I winterize the unit, however things do happen and the same company successfully tested a backflow unit at my workplace with no problems. I'll probably give them a second chance next year as they were still less than less than I had been previously paying, but will watch them closely next year.
