Backwater Valve Installation

Backwater Valve Installation: Your First Line of Defense Against Sewage Backup

Installing the backwater valve should be done beneath your basement's floor, near the location of your home's main sanitary sewer. What transpires in your basement when untreated sewage begins to bubble or gurgle up through the floor drains? Have you ever thought about the steps you should take to safeguard your property against these flooding risks? If you are a homeowner, you undoubtedly take great pride in the upkeep you do to keep your house safe from unforeseen circumstances. But most homeowners don't think about fixing their plumbing system until there is a flood or wastewater that rises to the floor, causing damage to the house.

It can seriously harm your health in addition to ruining your house. Fortunately, installing a backwater valve can help avoid this problem. Installing a backwater valve is an added feature that gives you comfort in knowing that your house is secure and that water damage has been repaired. It is essential to treat wastewater.

The Importance of Backwater Valve Installation

Prevents Sewage Backup:

To shield your family and property from possible health risks during periods of heavy rainfall or flooding, backwater valves are essential.

Preserves Property Value:

By protecting your property from water damage and potential structural problems brought on by sewage backups, installing a backwater valve increases the value of your asset.

Regulatory Compliance

Backwater valve installation is mandated by building codes in many municipalities to protect properties from sewer system failures and to enhance property safety.

Cost-Effective Solution

Even though the initial outlay might seem high, the savings over time from not having to pay for water damage restoration far exceed the costs associated with installation.

Community Safety:

Backwater Valve Repair

If your basement smells like sewage even though you have a backwater valve installed, it may be a sign that your sewer backup valve needs to be fixed. The unpleasant smell may come from dirty water entering your home due to a backup in your main sewer line. Most backwater valves have varying life expectancies depending on a number of variables, including the caliber of the materials used, how often they are maintained, and how much use and stress they will see. A well-maintained backwater valve should typically last five to twenty years.
