Backflow Prevention
Safe water starts with prevention. That’s why Jet ’N’ Drain offers certified water backflow testing across Hervey Bay and the wider Fraser Coast.

Compliant Backflow Prevention Devices
Peace of Mind
Backflow prevention devices are your first line of defence against contaminated water entering your clean supply. These devices protect your property and the wider community by stopping reverse flow from irrigation, fire systems or internal plumbing faults.
To stay compliant with Queensland regulations, annual testing by a licensed professional is required. During the service, we thoroughly assess your backflow prevention device, test its performance, identify any faults or leaks, and complete the necessary certification and council paperwork.
We take care of everything from start to finish, explaining the process in everyday language so you’re never left guessing. Whether you’re a homeowner, business owner or body corporate, we’re here to keep your water safe and your responsibilities sorted.
Get in touch today to schedule your annual test or to learn more about how it works.
What is backflow and why is testing important?
Backflow occurs when water flows in the reverse direction, potentially drawing contaminated water into your clean supply. This can happen due to pressure changes in your plumbing. Testing is essential because it ensures backflow prevention devices are working correctly, protecting both your property and the public water supply from contamination.
Who needs to get backflow testing done?
Backflow testing is generally required for properties with irrigation systems, fire hose reels, commercial kitchens, medical facilities or other potential cross-connections. Councils typically notify property owners when testing is due, but it remains the owner’s responsibility to ensure devices are checked and maintained annually.
What happens during a backflow test?
A licensed plumber will shut off your water temporarily, inspect the backflow prevention device, perform pressure tests to check for leaks or faults, and ensure it operates correctly. If the device passes, results are documented and submitted to the local council. If repairs are needed, the plumber will advise on next steps.
