Pool and Spa Fill Backflow Protection in Roanoke, VA

An auto-fill line or hose connection on a pool or spa creates a direct path for chlorinated water to reach the supply. We install the correct device on pool fill lines and check that hose bibbs have vacuum breakers. This simple step protects your household water and keeps you in line with local code. We can add the work when a pool is being built or renovated.

Reduced Pressure Zone Assembly Installation in Roanoke, VA

RPZ assemblies offer the highest level of protection and are required for high hazard connections like commercial kitchens, medical facilities, chemical injection and car washes. They include two independent check valves with a relief valve that dumps water if either check fails. Because the relief valve can discharge, we plan for drainage and install the assembly above grade where it can be tested. We carry trusted brands like Watts, Febco, Wilkins and Apollo.

Backflow Enclosures and Freeze Protection in Roanoke, VA

Above-ground assemblies sit in direct sun in summer and can freeze on cold nights. Higher elevations in the west of Virginia freeze more often and harder than coastal areas, so pipe insulation matters more there. We install insulated enclosures, freeze blankets or heated cabinets based on your local climate. Enclosures also discourage theft, since brass backflow assemblies are a common target for scrap thieves. We choose enclosures with enough room for testing and service.

Commercial Backflow Prevention in Roanoke, VA

Commercial properties in Roanoke, VA often have complex plumbing systems that pose a higher risk of cross-contamination and require robust backflow prevention. Restaurants, hospitals, industrial facilities and even multi-family buildings must comply with commercial plumbing codes. FBN Plumbing provides complete installation of heavy-duty backflow preventers, including large diameter RPZ assemblies, to safeguard public health and meet Virginia regulations for businesses. We handle all necessary permits and inspections.

Backflow Preventer Installation Cost Comparison in Roanoke, VA

A residential pressure vacuum breaker is the most affordable option, while larger RPZ assemblies for commercial buildings cost a good deal more in parts and labor. Size, brand, enclosure needs and how much existing pipe must be modified all affect the price. Replacing a failed old device with a new one is usually cheaper than repeated rebuilds. We give you an itemized quote that includes the initial certification test.

Backflow Prevention for Irrigation Systems in Roanoke, VA

Irrigation systems in Roanoke, VA are a frequent source of backflow, as stagnant water and lawn chemicals can be drawn back into the potable water supply. Installing a dedicated backflow preventer for your sprinkler system is often a local code requirement. We are experienced in selecting and installing the correct device, such as a pressure vacuum breaker or atmospheric vacuum breaker, to protect your home's main water line from contaminants coming from your landscape irrigation.
