Backflow Repair & Installation in Chandler, AZ
Chandler's backflow program runs on compliance dates, and the city is clear that a repair doesn't buy extra time. When an irrigation assembly at your HOA, apartment community or business fails its test, Pro Turf repairs, rebuilds or replaces it and coordinates with your Chandler-approved tester so a passing report is filed before the deadline. We don't do the testing; we fix what the test finds.
How Chandler's backflow program works
Chandler doesn't hand out extensions for backflow repairs. Good thing we don't need one.
Chandler sends customers a 60-day notice before each compliance date, with reminders at 30, 15 and 5 days. Only testers and testing companies approved by the City of Chandler may test, and testing should happen no earlier than 60 days before the due date. Reports go to the Water Quality Division within ten business days of any work on an assembly. If a passing report isn't received by the compliance date, water is shut off one business day later, and no extensions are given for repairs.
New installations and replacements need an Encroachment Permit, the passing test after installation must include the permit number, and assemblies go in per Chandler's standard details. One more local wrinkle: Chandler has a reclaimed water system marked by purple pipes, fixtures or cages, and approved testers can't test assemblies on it. That testing runs under the city's Water Distribution division. We flag permits and reclaimed lines before a replacement starts, so nothing stalls near your due date.
Many Chandler properties pair this with grounds maintenance in Chandler and irrigation repair in Chandler, so one team handles the whole property.
