Backflow Testing in Winter Springs
Annual backflow testing in Winter Springs, with the report filed so the notice stops.
Winter Springs runs its own utility for city addresses, and a good share of its lots have separate irrigation meters, which means a second device and a second report. We file with the City of Winter Springs utility for city meters and with Seminole County for county meters.

Quick answer
Backflow testing in Winter Springs means a certified tester checks the device on your meter, irrigation line or fire line with a calibrated gauge and files the passing report with your water purveyor. City of Winter Springs runs the water utility for city addresses; a few edges toward Oviedo and Casselberry are on Seminole County. Winter Springs has not published a city-run residential testing program, so the annual test is done by a certified tester you hire and the report goes to the city.
What we
actually do.
Winter Springs stretches along 434 from 17-92 out to Oviedo — Tuscawilla, the Town Center, and a lot of irrigated subdivisions.
We turn down the test when your city already does it for you. Longwood tests residential devices for a fee, Casselberry tests irrigation devices on its own cycle, and Altamonte Springs tests residential devices at no charge. If your notice says the city is doing the test, use the city — paying us on top of that is wasted money.

Backflow Testing in Winter Springs — FAQ
Who does my backflow test report go to in Winter Springs?
City of Winter Springs runs the water utility for city addresses; a few edges toward Oviedo and Casselberry are on Seminole County. We file with the City of Winter Springs utility for city meters and with Seminole County for county meters.
Does the city of Winter Springs test backflow devices itself?
Winter Springs has not published a city-run residential testing program, so the annual test is done by a certified tester you hire and the report goes to the city.
How long does a backflow test take in Winter Springs?
About 20 to 30 minutes per device once we are on site, with your water off for a few minutes of it. Winter Springs stretches along 434 from 17-92 out to Oviedo — Tuscawilla, the Town Center, and a lot of irrigated subdivisions.
Do the Tuscawilla HOAs handle backflow testing for the neighborhood?
For common-area irrigation, the HOA is the account holder and its device is the HOA's responsibility. Your own lot's meter is yours. If you are unsure which notice you are holding, the account name on it tells you. We handle both — HOA common-area devices on a schedule, and individual lots on request.
What do I need to do before the tester arrives?
Make sure the device is reachable — cut back landscaping if it is buried, and have the key if it is in a locked enclosure. You do not need to be home for an exterior device. If you know the make and model, tell us when you book so the right rebuild kit is on the truck in case it fails.
Holding a notice? Call the tester.
Read us the notice. We tell you who it says should do the test, what it costs if that is us, and — if your city already tests for you — that you do not need us at all.
