Pick the Avondale backflow path that matches the problem
The city term helps discovery. The governing utility still decides the rule, submission method, tester route, and follow-up order.

Check the local rule before treating this as a generic tester search
- Cadence: At installation and annually thereafter
- Due basis: Avondale says annual testing is required, that customers will be notified when results are due, and that only a Certified Backflow Prevention Assembly Tester approved by the City may test devices in the system.
- Notice or device clue: Look for the utility name, service address, assembly serial number, account or notice ID, and due date.
- Submission: Avondale backflow and cross-connection page
- Acceptance rule: Report acceptance depends on the governing tester route and the utility's submission method; confirm status before scheduling.
- Cost signal: Testing is market-priced, but Avondale narrows the provider path through its approved tester list.
