The backflow prevention program has started in Nepean. Private property owners began being notified in 2018 so they can comply with the new timelines and laws. So what is this backflow prevention program? Backflow is unclean or used water that flows back into the city’s water supply from your property. This can cause contamination in the distribution of the drinking water.
A backflow device is required to be installed so this won’t happen. The program won’t affect everyone, mainly commercial, institutional and multi-residential properties such as apartments, hotels, hospitals, etc.
The city of Ottawa and it’s surrounding areas need to protect our drinking water from contamination. Certain strict guidelines and standards have been put in place to do this. And everything needs to be under CSA compliance.
