Pennichuck Water Works testing Backflow Prevention Devices

On January 11th between the hours of 11am and 230pm, Pennichuck will be testing the backflow prevention devices to make sure they are working properly.

A backflow prevention device is used to protect potable water (drinkable water) supplies from contamination or pollution due to backflow. Reduced pressure in the pipe may allow contaminated water from the soil, from storage, or from other sources to be drawn up into the system.
