What Is Backflow—and Why Should You Care?
Backflow occurs when water flows in the wrong direction in your plumbing system, pulling contaminants like fertilizers, industrial chemicals, or wastewater into your clean, potable water supply. This can happen due to changes in water pressure from events like a burst pipe or firefighting activities.
That’s why local codes require functioning backflow prevention devices, especially for commercial properties and irrigation systems.
A Properly Functioning Backflow Prevention Device Protects Against:
- Industrial fluids
- Gases
- Used water
- Pesticides
- Other hazardous substances
Don’t take chances with your family’s or customers’ health.
Signs You May Need Backflow Repair or Replacement
Not sure if you have an issue? Here are some common warning signs:
- Water tastes or smells odd
- Discolored or cloudy water
- A recent drop in water pressure
- Your annual backflow test failed
- You've had recent plumbing issues or flooding
If you notice any of these symptoms, don’t wait. Backflow can lead to serious contamination fast.

“They were both exactly on time and took care of everything very fast.”- Laura D.
Great Company!
"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!"- Laura D. -
“American Plumbing will be our new HVAC agency in the future, and I would recommend Nicholas to anyone!”- Patty S.
What a Relief!
"After 5 days of waiting on another HVAC company who was "waiting on the manual from the manufacturer" to even begin to diagnose what was wrong with our A/C unit, we called American Plumbing. What a relief! Nicholas C came out right away and within minutes showed us that one of the circuit boards had burn marks that indicated an obvious issue. He ordered the parts the same day, had them express shipped, and showed up within a day of receiving the parts to get us up and running again. Nicholas was friendly, professional, honest, and efficient. American Plumbing will be our new HVAC agency in the future, and I would recommend Nicholas to anyone! He helped us get back to full business. Thank you!!"- Patty S. -
“We felt really good about the service he was able to perform and he knew a lot about plumbing and the right and wrong way to do things.”- Jessica C.
Honest, Friendly, and Informative
"We had David from American Plumbing out today and he was honest, friendly, and informative. We felt really good about the service he was able to perform and he knew a lot about plumbing and the right and wrong way to do things. He was able to find our leak with little to no damage to our walls, repair the leak with just a small cut in our wall, and was super clean about it. We will definitely be using this company again."- Jessica C. -
“They were amazingly efficient, friendly, professional, and even re-inspected their own work to make sure everything was 100% perfect.”- Chris A.
Perfectionists!
"This company was referred to us by another plumbing contractor in San Diego.. so that says something right there. Justin came in and handled our laundry list from our home inspector. He reviewed all the work, the charges associated with it and helped to navigate what really needed to be done. They were amazingly efficient, friendly, professional, and even re-inspected their own work to make sure everything was 100% perfect. This is a high-quality company offering great services and fair pricing on all work performed. We are excited to have found our new local plumbers for any and everything in our home"- Chris A. -
“My house is now cool and Andrew's integrity is why I will come back.”- Mike D.
Saved Me Hundreds
"My A/C was really dirty and stopped working. Andrew saved me hundreds of dollars by cleaning it and getting it working, rather than just telling me I needed to replace everything (I wouldn't have known the difference). My house is now cool and Andrew's integrity is why I will come back."- Mike D.
