What to check for Scottsdale

Scottsdale's public page is less fire-specific than Mesa or Broward, but construction-water and protected commercial systems still make fire-side intent relevant.

  • Due basis: Scottsdale requires installation, testing, and maintenance of approved assemblies on covered plumbing systems, sends commercial customers annual inspection notices, and requires certified testers for testing, installation, retrofit, and replacement work.
  • Notice or device clue: Look for the utility name, service address, assembly serial number, account or notice ID, and due date.
  • Who is affected: Commercial services, construction and temporary water users, irrigation or private-main projects downstream of required backflow devices, and other plumbing systems covered by Scottsdale ordinances.
  • Acceptance rule: Report acceptance depends on the governing tester route and the utility's submission method; confirm status before scheduling.
  • Program phone: 480-312-5668
