Does a sprinkler backflow preventer need testing in Frederick?
Irrigation, commercial, industrial and fire lines must have an approved backflow assembly, tested by a certified tester at installation and every year after. Results go to the Town and Aqua Backflow, and double-check assemblies are not allowed on irrigation systems. For single-family homes, requirements vary by hazard, and the Town encourages testing irrigation systems every three years.
