What Creates Backflow in Your Plumbing System

The idea of having toxic waste flowing back into your pure drinking water is definitely a nightmare for every homeowner. However, other than knowing that it is a terrible situation, most residents in Oceanside are unaware what leads to this disaster in the first place. Deep in the complicated mass of piping below the surface, there are many different cross-connections that allow waste and dirty water to flow into the mainline. Backflow is the result of an accidental reversal of flow due to a sudden change in water pressure between these connections.

The two kinds of backflow which could occur in your plumbing system include:

  • Backflow as a result of backpressure – Sometimes, the pressure of waste-water flowing downwards rapidly increases in comparison to the flow of your potable water. Whether this is because too much water has been utilized at a single point in time, or because the temperature of a boiler or other water heater system has suddenly risen, this can lead to backpressure.
  • Backflow as a result of backsiphonage – Another kind of backflow is that of backsiphonage, which creates the same disastrous result but through an opposite set of circumstances. If a small vacuum forms within your potable supply, this space quickly decreases the pressure of your fresh water, allowing dirty backflow to infiltrate back up your system.

    Friendly Attitude
    “I will be using American Plumbing for all my plumbing and air conditioning needs in the future.”

    “Friendly Attitude”
    I had a tenant who needed immediate attention the evening before Thanksgiving. American Plumbing immediately dispatched a plumber who had gone home to relax on a wet and cold evening. David cheerfully set aside his evening meal to solve my problem. The job was done efficiently, with a friendly attitude, and at a fair price. Having used dozens of plumbers during more than 40 in north county, I will be using American Plumbing for all my plumbing and air conditioning needs in the future.

    Above & Beyond Service
    “We are always very happy with the excellent service that we receive from American Plumbing Heating & Air Conditioning that I just need to recognize a company that goes above and beyond.”

    “Above & Beyond Service”
    Way overdue in writing this review as it has been quite the year.  However, we are always very happy with the excellent service that we receive from American Plumbing Heating & Air Conditioning that I just need to recognize a company that goes above and beyond.

    This particular review is on Nick and Juan who installed our air conditioner during one of the hottest weeks of the year.  They were so professional and extremely knowledgeable about the unit that was being installed.  From an original visit to installation was seamless and complete in under a week.  They arrived wearing their masks and my home and yard were spotless when they left.  

    I also want to thank the office personnel as scheduling and payment were quick and easy.

    We definitely recommend American Plumbing Heating & Air Conditioning and will continue to do business with them!

    We had David come out to do hot water heater flush and James to do HVAC clean up. They were both exactly on time and took care of everything very fast. Great company! Myra, who does dispatch is also great!

    Quick and Honest Work
    “He ended up recommending equipment that is much stronger, more efficient (DC vs AC), and it is seamlessly integrated with the rest of our smart home.”

    “Quick and Honest Work”
    My wife had started the process of getting bids for a new AC system on the house. The bids she was getting were pure insanity. We had American Plumbing out to do our tankless water heater, and I knew they did AC. I also had Nick from American out earlier to our house to replace a capacitor on our old failing system, and he was quick and honest about the job. I wanted to hear his take on our job. He ended up recommending equipment that is much stronger, more efficient (DC vs AC), and it is seamlessly integrated with the rest of our smart home. All for about $8k less than the other bids we were getting. I even got a roll-around AC unit for my garage/shop as part of the deal.

    Side bonus. My hummingbirds no longer fly away the second the AC fires up.
