Roosevelt Ridge Homeowners Association

Jordan Ottow will be in our neighborhood again this year to conduct backflow tests on sprinklers.  He is available to test your backflow assembly on Saturday, March 10th or Monday, March 19th.  Please contact Jordan at Panther Backflow Testing, P: 425-231-6360, E: pantherbackflow@gmail.com to schedule your test.  Jordan will be charging $35 for this test (discounted from $50).

Homeowners with underground sprinkler systems are required by Roosevelt Water Association to have their backflow assemblies tested by a certified backflow assembly tester by April 1st.  Backflow assemblies are required on all underground sprinkler systems by the Washington State Department of Health, WAC 246-290-490.  The annual testing requirement is enforced by Roosevelt Water Association to protect the public water system from contamination such as bacteria and/or fertilizers that enter through sprinkler heads, broken piping, etc.  Although some assemblies last for years, at some point a backflow assembly will fail, and need repair.  Proper maintenance and annual testing of backflow assemblies keeps a safe drinking water system.
