Backflow Prevention & RPZ Valves

Call Rapid Plumbing Group to arrange for installation of backflow prevention systems such as RPZ valves!

Backflow prevention is a vital part of ensuring safe drinking water.
Backflow occurs when water flows backward from its intended direction, often due to a change in pressure. This can cause contaminated water to enter the drinking water supply, posing a serious health risk. Australian law requires the installation of a backflow preventer in the piping system.

Rapid Plumbing is well-versed in the installation and maintenance of all types of backflow preventers, including Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) valves. Give us a call, and we can decide on the best type of backflow prevention for you, and help you install it too.

Backflow Prevention & RPZ Valves Sydney FAQs

Is RPZ the best type of backflow prevention?

Compared to the more common Double Check Valve, RPZ is much more reliable and effective at preventing backflow as it is capable of handling more than one type of backflow.

Where should a RPZ valve be installed?

RPZ valves should be installed above ground. They are usually attached horizontally, but can be modified to be installed vertically.

How do I maintain a RPZ valve?

RPZ valves are relatively complex assemblies and should be maintained by plumbers. Schedule routine inspections with a professional from Rapid Plumbing to keep your RPZ valves working at tip-top shape.
