PREVENTION & SAFETY STANDARDS
The ‘Backflow Prevention Program’ was developed and implemented in many municipalities of Ontario to protect your drinking water quality by ensuring appropriate backflow prevention devices were installed and then inspected, and Ottawa was definitely included. How it works is the device prevents contaminated water from flowing back into your city’s public water system. This program has not affected an enormous amount of people’s single homes as most already had this type of device in place however, it has already enforced the program in approximately 15,000 commercial, institutional and multi – residential properties such as apartments, hotels, hospitals, automotive and manufacturing facilities etc.
This program comes with very strict water safety standards and guidelines; all checks and balances must be in compliance with the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). Property owners began being notified in 2018, and were advised of compliance laws and the corresponding timelines they would be afforded to become compliant and ready for inspection. This is currently ongoing across Ontario.

More Information About Backflow Prevention
Once compliance has been achieved, water testing is done randomly and will continue on an ongoing basis to monitor whether any severity ratings of moderate or high water contamination is present. Site surveys are also requested every five years and backflow device testing is done annually. A surveyor from The Ontario Water Works Association (OWWA) is required to carry out site surveys and install these devices.
Weather is always a factor where plumbing is concerned, and Canadian temperatures fluctuate from one extreme temperature to the other. In regions such as Ottawa that are subjected to heavy rainfall and flash floods, all property owners should inspect their plumbing. It’s not just to be in compliance or to save money, it’s a matter of health. The absence of backflow devices has the potential for contaminated water to be in your drinking supply which can call on a number of illnesses that could be avoided. If your property has incurred an amount of water damage, mold can be present, also a threat to your family’s health if not taken care of.
If you are unsure whether your home or commercial property is in compliance with these water safety prevention laws, or are concerned you already may have a health safety issue developing call John THE Plumber Ottawa – one of our plumbers will be over to advise you ASAP!
