Cross Connection Survey

We, at MP Hickey Backflow Testing and Cross Connection Survey Specialist, welcome you. Our goal is to enlighten you about Cross Connection Surveys and their importance. The goal is to keep the quality of our drinking water safe.

A cross connection is a real or potential meeting of potable or safe drinking water and the public water supply where there could be a possibility of contamination in the system. The possibilities exist from the likelihood of a mishap with a swimming pool, fire hose, a boiler, a garden hose, sprinkler system, etc.

Keeping you protected!
To keep everyone safe and protected, your water agency may suggest the installation of a backflow preventer device on the customer’s commercial, industrial, or multi-residential building property.

A cross connection survey helps to determine, within each city’s jurisdiction, the potential for hazardous water mixing with clean, public water. Inspections which are performed each year by an MP Hickey Backflow Testing technician, a licensed, and certified professional, will eliminate water supply risk to users. It is the responsibility of each water user to maintain his or her own (water) plumbing supply, at the cost of the property owner.

While we help to ensure that your potable water supply is safeguarded from hazardous levels of impure drinking water, your local water agency will perform a survey that offers information about the water connections. A backflow preventer device may be suggested to eliminate contamination that can happen on your property. Again, property owners are held accountable for preventing mishaps. We, your courteous and knowledgeable experts, will inspect, install, and maintain your preventer keeping it in optimal working order. The experience and expertise of MP Hickey Backflow, allows us to meticulously care for your preventer device and repair or replace it if needed. Maintenance is one thing that we do well; poised to keep you, your family, tenants, employees, and contractors in your buildings out of harm’s way — with drinking water that is pure now and in the future.
