Why do I need my backflow assessed?
Backflow assemblies and devices have parts that can break down and wear out, just like the parts on your car. By having the backflow tested annually, you will help to ensure the drinking water supplied to your home remains safe. At Yanora Enterprises, we have certified backflow assembly testers on staff, who have attended a rigorous training program and are certified by the ASSE to inspect, test and repair all backflow assemblies and devices. We cover backflow testing, backflow installation and backflow repair for Northeastern Pennsylvania and surrounding areas.
