What to check for Lewisville

Lewisville's tester page and code language make fire assemblies a separate operational concern because not every tester can legally test every fire device.

  • Due basis: Lewisville says backflow prevention assemblies must be tested at installation and at least once per year thereafter by a licensed tester registered with the City. Test reports must be submitted electronically through BSI Online within ten days of the test date.
  • Who is affected: Irrigation, fire sprinkler, commercial, industrial, multi-family, and other properties the City deems a cross-connection hazard.
  • Program phone: 972-219-3400
Local signals

Signals that matter before you act

  • Fire sprinkler systems are explicitly named on the official page.
  • Lewisville warns that testers need the right credentials for the assembly being tested.
  • Fire assembly delays can be more expensive because the enforcement language is stronger and the device type is more specialized.
