How Do I Become a Certified Backflow Tester in Maine?

Backflow Testing in Maine is regulated by the Division of Environmental and Community Health, they have more info on their requirements here - https://www.maine.gov/dhhs/mecdc/environmental-health/dwp/sitemap/crossConnections.shtml - we have submitted our New England Region Backflow Tester Program for approval with the state, and feedback from students lends to their acceptance of our program as equivalent to the others listed, but currently the way their site reads it may not be accepted in all cases by all parties.

We are longstanding members and partners with the American Backflow Prevention Association ( ABPA ) which is listed on their website, and can proctor ABPA exams, so it may be required that you take our course and then take their third party exam for acceptance with all parties in the State of Maine. Our New England Program's written and practical exams are administered similarly to ABPA, but ABPA is nationally recognized as the Gold Standard for third party exam integrity and record keeping, and should be an aspiration for all backflow testers to maintain certification and membership with the organization.
