Backflow Preventers, Single Check

Zurn Single Check Valve Backflow Preventers are basic mechanical devices used by water utilities to provide a primary level of protection against backflow in low-hazard applications where contaminated water could potentially enter the public water supply system. These simple yet effective assemblies feature one spring-loaded check valve that allows water to flow in only one direction, making them suitable for residential services and low-risk commercial applications where more complex backflow prevention is not required. Water utilities often specify Zurn single check valves as a cost-effective solution for protecting water service connections in areas with minimal cross-connection risks, while still maintaining compliance with basic backflow prevention regulations and safeguarding public water quality.
