Backflow Repair & Installation in Scottsdale, AZ
The City of Scottsdale's Cross-connection Control Program requires commercial customers to have their backflow assemblies inspected every year. When an irrigation assembly at your HOA, resort, apartment community or office property fails, Pro Turf coordinates the fix: the backflow work is done by a reputable, certified backflow vendor we work with, and we handle scheduling, related irrigation repairs and the retest so a passing report reaches the city quickly.
How Scottsdale's backflow program works
Scottsdale mails the backflow reminder. We'd like the next one to be boring.
Scottsdale's program covers commercial water customers and requires approved backflow assemblies to be installed, tested and maintained under the city's plumbing codes and ordinances. The Water Quality Division notifies customers by mail when an inspection is due, and testing follows a yearly schedule. Testers submit results on the city's approved form, and reports are due to the Cross-Connection Control Program within seven days. Questions about a notice go to Water Quality at 480-312-5668.
Scottsdale is strict about who touches an assembly. The city says anyone working on one, including testing, installation, retrofits and replacements, must be a certified backflow tester, and it requires permits pulled by licensed companies for any new installation or replacement, even like-for-like. That's why our Scottsdale backflow work goes through a certified vendor partner. We line up the replacement, the permit and the retest together, so the assembly goes back into service with paperwork that matches.
Many Scottsdale properties pair this with grounds maintenance in Scottsdale and irrigation repair in Scottsdale, so one team handles the whole property.

Backflow Repair in Scottsdale: common questions
How often does Scottsdale require backflow testing?
Once a year for commercial customers. Scottsdale's Water Quality Division mails a notice when your assembly is due.
Does Scottsdale require a permit to replace a backflow preventer?
Yes. Scottsdale requires a permit, pulled by a licensed company, for any new installation or replacement, including a like-for-like swap.
Does Pro Turf's own crew work on the assembly?
Not in Scottsdale. Because the city requires a certified backflow tester for any work on an assembly, a certified vendor partner does that part, and our team coordinates the job and handles related irrigation repairs.
