What is backflow? Backflow occurs when the normal flow of water in your pipes reverses. This can happen due to pressure changes in the water supply or other hydraulic conditions.
When this reversal occurs, potentially contaminated water or substances can be drawn back into your clean water lines, posing a serious health risk.
