Why Do Nail Salons Need Backflow Testing?

Many nail salons use equipment and plumbing connections that create a potential cross-connection with the public water supply. Backflow prevention devices help ensure that water flows in the correct direction and helps protect drinking water from contamination.

Because these devices are an important part of public water safety, many municipalities require annual testing and certification. If you’ve received a notice from your city or water provider, it’s likely time to schedule your annual backflow test.
