What Is Annual Backflow Certification?
Florida law requires that any property with a backflow prevention assembly have it tested and certified by a licensed professional every year. This is not a suggestion — it is a legal requirement enforced by your local water utility. Missing your deadline can result in violation notices, fines, and water service interruption.
Backflow preventers are mechanical devices. Springs weaken. Seals wear. Debris accumulates. Annual testing confirms that the device protecting your drinking water from contamination is still functioning correctly — and that your compliance record is current with your water authority.
✅
Certified Test
Calibrated differential pressure testing of every check valve, relief valve, and shutoff on your assembly.
📋
Official Documentation
A complete test report including device type, serial number, tester license number, and all readings — accepted by every water utility in Broward and Palm Beach Counties.
📤
Direct Utility Filing
We submit your test results directly to Broward County, City of Fort Lauderdale, or your specific water utility. No forms for you to track down or deadlines to miss.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often is backflow certification required in Florida?
Annual testing is the standard requirement throughout Florida. Your local water utility determines the specific deadline — typically tied to your property’s annual compliance date. If you have received a notice, it will include your deadline.
What happens if I miss my certification deadline?
Utilities issue violation notices with new deadlines and potential fines. Continued non-compliance can lead to water service interruption. Call us immediately at 954-530-0241 — in most cases we can schedule quickly and file results with your utility before service is affected.
Do you file the test results with my water utility?
Yes — always. After every test we submit results directly to your water utility. You receive a copy for your records. You don’t have to track down forms or worry about submission deadlines.

Because Amy’s Backflows is a division of Amy’s Plumbing Corp — a licensed Florida plumbing contractor — we can repair or replace a failed device and re-test it in the same sequence. No need to coordinate with a separate plumber. See our full backflow testing page for details on what to expect.
