16-Hour Backflow Class Schedule ($500)
This is a Class designed for Virginia Tradesmen and Contractors
As a disclaimer, this class is arranged in a way that we have found works best for tradesmen and contractors, our motto is "we are where you are" meaning we have local hosts, usually plumbing supply houses in Virginia, at a bare minimum we require a room with tables and chairs and access to a water source. If you are taking this class strictly for continuing education credits or some type of stipend, just keep in mind that the class is arranged for contractors. We did not buy or rent large indoor training facilities in each of these course locations. Often the wet labs are outside. I have a gallery of photos of our mobile wet labs posted here - www.krugerstraining.academy/wet-lab-photos
Do a Private Course or Host A Public Course
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 for Virginia
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.
Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR) Approval
Our 40-hour and 16-hour courses are approved through the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation ( DPOR ) as vocational training related to the State Backflow Prevention Device Worker license ( requirement 13 on the DPOR application downloadable here ) Our registration with DPOR can be found here
We have a breakdown for the state test and access to all of the applications on our DPOR Test Prep page
Which Backflow Prevention Test Procedures Should I Use ?
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
