πŸ’§ Why is backflow testing so important?

This backflow test gauge is an essential tool used to verify that your backflow prevention assembly is working properly. Whether it's a commercial building or a residential property, a functioning backflow preventer helps keep contaminated water from flowing back into your clean drinking water supply.

Regular testing can:
βœ… Protect your family's or customers' drinking water
βœ… Meet local plumbing and water authority requirements
βœ… Prevent costly repairs and system failures
βœ… Ensure your backflow assembly is operating as designed
βœ”οΈ Safe drinking water
βœ”οΈ Annual compliance
βœ”οΈ Reliable plumbing system
βœ”οΈ Peace of mind
Most municipalities require annual backflow testing because protecting our water supply is everyone's responsibility.

Need your backflow preventer tested? We're here to help keep your water safe and your system compliant.

♨️ Boiler feed filter maintenance completed.

A clogged filter cartridge can restrict water flow, reduce system efficiency, and increase wear on pumps and equipment. This boiler feed filter change-out replaces a heavily used cartridge with a new one, helping maintain clean water flow and reliable boiler performance.

Preventive maintenance today helps avoid costly downtime tomorrow.

This is what hard water does to a heating element over time. All that buildup chokes efficiency and eventually kills the part altogether. πŸ’§

If your hot water's taking longer to heat or your energy bills are creeping up, scale like this could be why.

Regular flushing and maintenance goes a long way β€” give us a call if it's been a while since yours was checked. βœ…

Took an extended August long weekend to go camping with my family.

I'm driven and passionate about growing my business but also very intentional about spending quality time with my family. Kids only stay little for so long and you can't get time back.

We're trying to make a tradition of heading up to Lesser Slave Lake every summer. It's such a beautiful area and there's so much to do!

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ Visit family in Swan River First Nation
πŸͺΆ Attend powwows and other cultural gatherings
πŸƒ Explore nature with forest walks and paddle boarding
🎣 Go swimming, fishing and birding

This year we camped at:
πŸ• Carson-Pegasus Provincial Park on the way up
πŸ• Hilliard's Bay Provincial Park on the NW corner of the lake
πŸ• Wilderness Village on the way back

Already looking forward to next year!

Behind the drywall is where the real work happens. πŸ”§

Rough-in plumbing and venting for a project β€” drain lines, water lines, and everything tied together before the walls go back up.

This is the kind of work you never see once it's finished, but it matters more than anything else. Getting it right now means no problems later. βœ…

Shower valve roughed in, copper riser up to the shower head, hot and cold lines connected, and a shower base set in place. Good framing, clean pipe runs, and everything where it needs to be before the walls go on. 🚿

This is the kind of work you never see once the tile's up β€” but it's what makes everything work right for years.

See that blue PEX line connected with a brass valve? That's your cold water supply feeding the water heater. πŸ’§

One thing worth checking: make sure your shut-off valve turns smoothly. If it's seized or hard to move, you won't be able to stop the water fast when you need to β€” like during a leak or a tank replacement.

Give it a quarter turn now and then to keep it working. If it's stuck or you notice any dripping around the valve, call a licensed plumber before it becomes a bigger problem. βœ…

Before, during, and after β€” that's what a full bathroom renovation looks like. πŸ›

From stripped-down subfloor to marble tile, freestanding tub, and a proper walk-in shower with clean plumbing throughout. This is the kind of project we love being part of. βœ…
