When replacement is the right call in Lancaster
We recommend replacing an assembly in Lancaster when the body or bonnet is cracked from a freeze, the model is obsolete and rebuild kits are no longer produced, corrosion has pitted the seats, the assembly is the wrong size or type for the hazard, or repeated repairs are no longer economical. Newer assemblies are also easier and cheaper to test and rebuild going forward.
Code-compliant installation
We install USC-approved assemblies sized for your service and hazard level, set at the height and orientation City of Lancaster Water Utilities requires, with proper clearances for future testing. For irrigation we install double check and pressure vacuum breaker assemblies; for domestic and high-hazard applications, reduced pressure principle assemblies; for fire lines, DCDA and RPDA units. Freeze protection and insulated enclosures are available for exposed Lancaster installations.
Tested and filed before we leave
Every new assembly is tested immediately after installation, and we submit that initial report to City of Lancaster Water Utilities on your behalf. You get a copy for your records plus the due date for next year's test, and we can put your property on our annual reminder list.
What backflow replacements looks like in Lancaster
Replacements are most common on the industrial side — an assembly beyond rebuild, or one undersized after a tenant expanded a sprinkler system. On the residential side it is freeze-cracked bodies. Either way the new certification is filed with Lancaster Water Utilities as soon as the device is in service.
Lancaster water authority: City of Lancaster Water Utilities
Lancaster has two distinct halves for backflow purposes. West of I-35E, the logistics corridor around Lancaster Regional Airport and Danieldale Road holds large distribution buildings whose fire services carry big detector assemblies and whose domestic services protect battery rooms and wash bays. East of the highway, the older town center and surrounding neighborhoods bring aging residential irrigation, churches, and schools. Both file with City of Lancaster Water Utilities.
We submit your passing backflow replacements report directly to City of Lancaster Water Utilities — no paperwork on your end. City of Lancaster Water Utilities keeps the cross-connection records, and distribution buildings are reported per assembly — fire, domestic, and irrigation services each generate their own annual record.
