Backflow Prevention & Water Filtration

At Good Hands, we specialise in backflow prevention services in Sydney’s Inner West. Backflow refers to the unwanted flow of water in the opposite direction. Backflow prevention devices protect potable water supplies from pollution and contamination.

By preventing contaminated water from flowing back into the water supply, you can protect public health and prevent waterborne illnesses.

Common Issues with Backflow Prevention Devices

Backflow prevention devices protect potable water supplies from pollution and contamination.

1. Uneven Pressure

High pressure might cause valves to malfunction, leading to backflow. However, low pressure can make the backflow device ineffective, which allows contaminants to enter the water supply.

2. Water Leaks

Leaks in backflow prevention devices not only require immediate attention but they also run the risk of contamination.

3. Slow Drainage

A decrease in drainage efficiency often indicates an underlying problem with your backflow plumbing. You could be dealing with a clogged or faulty backflow prevention device.

  Using GOOD HANDS PLUMBING for the first time, we were impressed by how quickly they responded to our request and the detail they were able to provide about solutions to our ongoing problems. Aidan and Logan worked over a number of days to resolve our situation & at all times they were completely professional and easy to work with. They completed the work, cleaned up and left us completely satisfied.  10/10 for the work done and the manner in which it was done.

  Highly recommended. The team responded to my initial query very quickly, performed an inspection and worked back & forth with my wife to discuss the various options.
The quality of the vanity instantly was excellent and the plumbers kept me updated throughout the job as well as performing thorough testing prior to leaving.
