Backflow prevention and cross connection control are essential measures to protect drinking water from contamination. Backflow happens when water flows backward in a plumbing system, potentially carrying harmful substances like chemicals or bacteria into the clean water supply. A cross connection occurs where drinking water pipes and non-potable water sources meet, increasing the risk of backflow.
To safeguard public health, the municipality of New Glasgow and surrounding towns are now enforcing the installation and regular maintenance of backflow prevention devices in all commercial buildings.
