Credentials that matter in Michigan

• Licensed plumber status required for Michigan testers
• Field experience with a wide range of assemblies and site conditions
  

In Michigan, a certified Backflow Tester is also a licensed plumber. That means they can legally repair assemblies. The difference comes from training, diagnostics and parts knowledge developed through real projects, not just classroom study.

What a Backflow Tester does on site

• Confirms assembly identification and installation details
• Performs calibrated gauge testing and records readings
• Communicates pass or fail results clearly
• Provides a written test report and submits certification to the authority

When repairs are needed

If an assembly fails, our standard workflow is diagnose, quote and return once approved. Because there are many assembly types and parts, same-day repairs are uncommon. This protects your budget and ensures the correct components are installed.

Preparing your facility

• Make assemblies accessible and clear obstructions
• Coordinate shutoff windows with occupants
• Plan any temporary water or bypass arrangements you require. These are managed by the customer.

Choosing a partner, not just a tester

• Ask about ASSE credentials and licensing
• Request sample reports and certificates
• Verify communication and scheduling process
• Look for statewide coverage if you manage multiple sites
