Backflow Prevention in the Greater Indianapolis Area

A residential backflow preventer should be installed on the main water line by a licensed plumber, aligned with the flow arrow, accessible for testing, and protected from freezing.

• Place it after the meter/main shutoff, before irrigation or other cross-connections.
• Use a device matched to hazard level (RP, DC, or PVB).
• Install level with shutoffs and unions for service.
• Keep test ports reachable; arrange startup and annual testing.

It’s leaking from the weep hole if water drips or sprays from the relief/vent port when no fixtures are running. A steady drip often means debris or a worn internal check. A stream can indicate freeze or body damage. In Noblesville and nearby Carmel, we service irrigation and domestic backflow preventers.

• Dry the body and place a paper towel under the vent; watch for wet spots.
• Close the downstream shutoff; if it still leaks, the fault is inside the device.
• Cycle the supply valve; note if flow changes.
• Never plug the vent; shut water and call a pro. <br/>
