What to check for Marana

Marana is especially good for irrigation because non-potable irrigation neighborhoods like Gladden Farms and Rancho Marana are part of the public explanation.

  • Due basis: Marana says required backflow assemblies must be tested annually by a certified tester registered with Marana Water. Failure to complete the test can lead to disconnection of potable water until a passing test is completed, and failed tests must be repaired or replaced within 7 days.
  • Who is affected: Marana commercial, industrial, multifamily, high-rise, and special residential customers, especially those in areas with non-potable irrigation water from CMID.
  • Program phone: 520-382-2570
