My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Irrigation Plan... Backflow Code

16 years ago

Hello all,

Does anybody know what are the backflow requirements for Texas?

...Yes, I am will have a licensed installer, however after contacting three parties to get prices, etc...I get very different stories, thus I am concerned, and the city (Edinburg) has not been helpful when calling.

I would prefer to purchase my own backflow that I know exceeds code and simply pay for it to be connected. Or other ideas???

Thanks in advance
