Under Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MoDNR) regulations (10 CSR 60-11.010), Missouri operates as a containment state. City Utilities (CU) of Springfield strictly enforces annual backflow testing to prevent cross-contamination in the public drinking water system. Non-compliance or unsubmitted test reports can result in water service shutoffs.  

We eliminate compliance stress by managing your assemblies and test filings end-to-end:

Certified Annual Backflow Testing: ASSE & MoDNR certified testing for Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) valves, Double Check Valve Assemblies (DCVA), and Double Check Detector Assemblies (DCDA), ensuring your systems meet all necessary standards including fire sprinkler inspection requirements. 

Direct CU Portal Reporting: As registered backflow contractors, our certified testers submit official passing test reports directly into the online City Utilities Backflow Portal (backflow.cityutilities.net). You never have to worry about misplaced paperwork or missed utility deadlines. 

Rapid Deficiency & Failure Repairs: If an assembly fails inspection, CU regulations mandate repair within 30 days. We stock commercial repair kits and perform immediate on-site rebuilds or replacements to restore passing operational standards before shutoff notices occur. This service extends to our private fire hydrant testing, ensuring all components are continually compliant. 

Commercial & Irrigation Assemblies: Testing and maintenance for commercial domestic mains, fire sprinkler backflows, boiler feeds, commercial kitchens, and lawn irrigation backflows (including June 1st annual irrigation deadlines).

In Springfield, Missouri, private fire hydrants must undergo thorough private fire hydrant testing to ensure they can deliver the essential water supply for fire sprinkler systems and emergency response as mandated by the Springfield Fire Department. This testing verifies the correct pressure and available gallons-per-minute (GPM). If a hydrant does not meet the minimum standards, corrective action may be necessary to maintain compliance and keep the fire system functional. Additionally, Backflow Doctor specializes in backflow testing, fire sprinkler inspection, and assisting properties in adhering to fire code compliance.
