We proctor the New Jersey exams at our New York courses, but there are two exams, this is done at no extra charge just ask the instructor.
No course 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.
This license is managed by the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH). Once you complete our course, your info is submitted to NYSDOH and then you are added to their database for licensed backflow testers. Each jurisdiction in the state, including New York City, query the NYSDOH database to confirm if a backflow assembly tester is licensed. Once complete, you are published on their list of approved testers.
Per Rules of the City of New York Title 15 Chapter 20 Section 4E - note 4 - Testing of Backflow Preventers must be performed by an NYSDOH certified tester who is employed by a NYC Licensed Plumber - and note 5 - Any submitted annual test report must include the seal of a NYC Master Plumber. So, in the 5 boroughs you need a NYC Master Plumber to certify the test report, and the tester must be an NYSDOH certified backflow tester, but they do not have to be the same person, outside of the 5 boroughs you would likely not need anything other than the NYSDOH approved certification, but areas may require local registration or applicable local trade licenses.
We hold an approval through New York State Department of Health ( NYSDOH ) for both the 32-hour Initial and 8-hour Renewal Backflow Prevention Tester Courses. Our approval is listed on their website at https://www.health.ny.gov/environmental/water/drinking/cross/courses.htm
The 32-hour course also counts for 20 contact hours or 2.0 CEUs for New York State Water Operator Renewal Credits.
The course is also used pretty frequently for the Irrigation license requirement on Long Island and other areas, you just have to hold a NYSDOH certification and they can use our certificate for that.
We have found the USC-10th Edition testing procedures to be the most efficient. On our YouTube Channel, we created a series of videos where we test the four types of preventers using these procedures:
Reduced Pressure Principle (RPZ) - USC 2-Valve Procedures
Double Check Valve Assembly (DCV) - USC Procedures
Pressure Vacuum Breaker (PVB) - USC Procedures
Spill Resistant Vacuum Breaker (SVB) - USC Procedures
