Backflow Prevention Testing
Certified Backflow Prevention & TMV Testing Services
Protecting your water supply from contamination is a legal and safety priority. At Asset Plumbing Solutions, we offer fully certified backflow prevention testing and thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) testing for commercial, industrial, and healthcare properties. Our experienced team ensures your systems comply with current regulations and operate safely giving you peace of mind and protecting public health.
Why Backflow and TMV Testing Is Critical
Backflow occurs when contaminated water flows back into the clean supply—posing serious health risks. TMVs, on the other hand, regulate water temperature to prevent scalding in settings like hospitals and aged care homes. Both systems must be tested regularly to comply with Australian standards and ensure safe operation. Non-compliance can result in fines or harm to occupants.
Who Needs Backflow and TMV Testing?

Cafés, salons, gyms, and office buildings often have backflow devices and TMVs that require annual testing for compliance.
Industrial Facilities
These settings must meet strict safety standards for water temperature control and cross-contamination prevention.
Healthcare and Educational
Children are particularly vulnerable to burns—making TMV testing critical in learning and care environments.
Residential Properties
Sites handling chemicals or large-scale water systems require regular backflow checks to protect the public water supply.
