Cat 5 Plumbing Services provides professional installation, testing, and ongoing maintenance of all types of backflow preventers for residential and commercial properties — with 24/7 emergency after‑hours response when you need it most.

Why a backflow preventer matters:

• The State of Florida requires businesses to install and annually test a backflow preventer on any potable water line served through a municipality or other governing body.

• Increasingly, local jurisdictions and several Florida counties are also requiring backflow preventers on the main potable water line for homes.

• The specific device required varies by local rules; check with your local water or cross‑connection department if you’re unsure whether your property needs one.

How Cat 5 Plumbing helps:

• Licensed in the State of Florida to install, service, and maintain backflow prevention devices on any residential, commercial, or industrial potable water service.

• Certified technicians perform annual testing and inspections to meet state and local compliance.

• We install the correct type of device for your jurisdiction and property type, and keep accurate testing records for code inspectors.

• 24/7 emergency response for after‑hours issues to protect your water supply and property.
