Company Profile

Founded by Gary, a master plumber with over five decades of experience, Backflow Prevention Supply has a unique origin story rooted in Salt Lake City's plumbing history. Gary was among the first local plumbers to become certified in backflow prevention, dedicating himself to learning, repairing, and even teaching the trade. Frustrated by the slow and unreliable parts supply from general suppliers, he started this company to ensure local contractors and homeowners had immediate access to the right components. Today, the business maintains a deep inventory of backflow assemblies, repair kits, and individual parts for both current and obsolete models, supported by Gary's expert troubleshooting guidance. This isn't just a supply house; it's a resource built by a plumber, for the plumbing community, to solve real-world problems efficiently.

Questions and Answers

What should I do if I'm experiencing low water pressure in my Salt Lake City home?

Fluctuating water pressure can often be linked to a malfunctioning backflow preventer, which is common in our area. Before assuming it's a major issue, it's wise to have your backflow assembly inspected. We can help you troubleshoot the problem over the phone or in person and provide the specific repair kit or individual part—like a worn spring or seal—needed to restore proper pressure, often saving you from a costly full assembly replacement.

Do you offer guidance for DIY plumbing repairs on backflow preventers?

Absolutely. Gary founded this business to help people understand and fix their systems. Whether you're a homeowner or a contractor, we provide expert troubleshooting assistance to identify the exact issue. We'll help you select the right repair kit—whether it's a complete overhaul kit or just a specific component like a ball valve—ensuring you fix only what's necessary. We also have parts for older models that are hard to find elsewhere.

Can you help me choose and install a new backflow prevention assembly?

Yes, we provide full support for installation and replacement. We stock a variety of backflow assemblies and can help you select the correct model for your specific application and local code requirements in Salt Lake City. Beyond just selling the unit, we offer guidance on proper installation practices and have all the necessary repair kits, enclosures, and individual parts on hand to complete the job correctly.
