Do a Private Course or Host A Public Course

No course or exam scheduled in your area ? We have two additional programs available, links to more info below:

Private Course - We can come to your location and train only your staff, bring all props, handouts, equipment, etc., Minimum of 10 students

Host a Course - Similar to a private course, we come to your facility and train your staff, but also you allow other local technicians to attend. No minimums for these and you get 2 free students.

How Do I Become a Certified Backflow Tester in Massachusetts ?

We hold an approval through the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection - Drinking Water Program, Cross Connection Control Program (MassDEP-DWP-CCCP) which is the state agency that regulates the water purveyors and backflow testing. The MassDEP-DWP-CCCP certification guide is posted on their website, with more information on how to apply found online as well. You take the course and then fill out a form and pay a fee to the state.

This is a Class Designed for Plumbers & Fire Sprinkler Contractors

This class is arranged in a way that we have found works best for contractors. We typically have local hosts that sell plumbing supplies, irrigation supplies, or backflow repair kits, or are manufacturing reps for these products, often also contractors host the courses. At a bare minimum we require a room with tables, chairs, and access to a water source. The wet labs are often outside or in garage bays. If you are with a water purveyor or larger company and have training facilities, we would recommend a private course. We have a gallery of photos of our mobile wet labs posted here - www.krugerstraining.academy/wet-lab-photos

Which Backflow Preventer 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
