What to check for Mansfield

Mansfield repeats the State Fire Marshal constraint for fire protection sprinkler assemblies.

  • Due basis: Mansfield says all backflow protection assemblies must be tested upon installation, repair, or relocation and that assemblies should be tested annually to ensure they are working.
  • Notice or device clue: Look for the BPAT/tester registration context, Envirotrax record, service address, or assembly identifier.
  • Who is affected: Mansfield properties with backflow prevention assemblies, especially installations, repairs, relocations, annual test cycles, and fire protection sprinkler assemblies.
  • Acceptance rule: Report acceptance depends on the named portal and the utility-approved tester route; keep proof that the report was submitted.
  • Program phone: 817-276-4230
