What Is Backflow and Why Is It Dangerous?
Backflow happens when water flows in the reverse direction—drawing contaminants into your clean water supply. This usually occurs due to changes in pressure, and it can expose your household or business to dangerous chemicals, bacteria, or waste.
At Plumbologist, we’re licensed backflow prevention specialists. Our certified plumbers are equipped with the tools and expertise to install, test, and maintain backflow devices to protect your property and meet council regulations.
Our Backflow Services Include:
Backflow prevention device installation
Annual backflow testing and certification
Backflow maintenance and repairs
Council compliance reports
What Is a Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV)?
A thermostatic mixing valve blends hot and cold water to deliver a constant, safe water temperature crucial in places like:
Childcare centres
Aged care homes
Hospitals
Gyms and salons
Schools and commercial kitchens
TMVs help prevent scalding accidents and ensure water temperatures remain safe even if the pressure or supply fluctuates. As a qualified TMV plumber, Kurt and the team at Plumbologist offer full TMV installation, testing, and compliance services.
