I went to test this watts 2” 007m1 at an apartment complex in Roanoke. Upon arrival, I noticed that the irrigation line is tied in with the domestic. I told the owner, that that was a cross connection, and the two had to be separated. A Wilkins 9502” xl3 was added for the irrigation and now they are both in compliant. Just another day in testing and repair.

I tested all these Watts 009 rpz at a McDonald’s in Fort Worth. This store has been there for a year. All are 009 and one 007m1. They serve main line domestic, coffee, smoothie, ice machine, r/o, co2, oven, irrigation, secondary domestic, and multiplex. All passed and good until next year. Just another day in testing and repair.

I tested this watts 009 that is on the domestic line for the water heaters that feed the showers at a new planet fitness in lake worth. The assembly had to be tested that day before the city inspector got there. I was there 30 minutes before he arrived, and tested the assembly. Paper work turned in, and they got their final co to open the fitness center. Just another day of testing and repair.

I tested all these watts rpz at McDonald’s in Fort Worth. These were mainly in one area to test. They all go to different things, ro system, co2, coffee, ice machines, main line, secondary main line with booster pump etc. Only assembly that’s not a watts is the irrigation, which is a Wilkins 350. All assemblies passed, and good for another year.

I went to test this assembly, it is a Wilkins 375 1” that’s on the irrigation at a residence. It did pass, however, he said he wrapped the pipes to protect against freezing. I did advise for him to rethink his work, and showed him a better way. What he used was a pool noodle from dollar general. 😂

I went out to test this assembly, however, low and behold the customer took it out to say it was cracked due to the freeze. He decided to straight pipe it in. Needless to say, no test was performed, and the city was notified of a cross connection. Things you see doing this job.

I tested these two Watts LF 009 rpz at a dentist office in Keller. One was the domestic line to the suite. The other for the suction pumps. Both were one year old and were due for their annual testing. Both passed, and good for another year. Just another day of testing and repair.

I tested this watts 1” 007m1 at a business in Saginaw. This assembly is the domestic line to the building. Of course, I removed the dirt to be able to test the device properly. This was for their annual test as it passed. I did advise the owner to have the landscapers keep the box cleaned out. Just another day of testing and repair.

I tested these two Apollo assemblies at a chevron gas station in Hurst. One serves the co2 soda, the other for the ice machine. The febco 850 is for irrigation which failed. The owner was advised that the irrigation
Needed to be repaired, or removed since they don’t use the sprinkler irrigation. No word on the repair. Just another day of testing and repair.
