How Do I Become a Certified Backflow Tester in Florida?
In Florida, there is no state level agency that regulates backflow assembly testing, so it is up to the discretion of the water districts and local water purveyors. We have submitted and received approvals from a number of entities, and are in the process of submitting our program to anyone required. Sarasota area is definitely accepting our certificates.
If you are interested in our course but unsure if it meets the local requirements, send us an email at krugerstrainingacademy@gmail.com and we can make whatever submissions are necessary to the local water purveyors or associations in your area.
Which Backflow Testing Procedures Should I Use ?
We have found the USC 10th Edition testing procedures to be the most efficient, often with additional procedures required on the RP for some water purveyors. On our YouTube Channel, we created a series of videos explaining the testing procedures and how to prepare for practical exams:
Testing the Reduced Pressure Principle ( RP ) - By the Book
Testing the Double Check Valve Assembly ( DCV ) - By the Book
Testing the Pressure Vacuum Breaker ( PVB ) Assembly - By the Book
