After filing

Keep acceptance proof

  • Report acceptance depends on the named portal and the utility-approved tester route; keep proof that the report was submitted.

Failed-test workflow
Workflow

Talty workflow order

  1. Match the utility notice to the service address, device or assembly record, and due date.
  2. Confirm the tester is accepted through the governing tester-list or approval route before the report is filed.
  3. File the result through the stored submission path: Talty SUD backflow page, Talty SUD irrigation page, Talty SUD backflow test form, Talty SUD tester registration form.
  4. Keep proof that the report was submitted and accepted; a passed field test alone may not close the compliance cycle.
  5. If the assembly failed, follow the repair, retest, and resubmission sequence before assuming compliance is restored.

What costs or fees should I expect for Talty?

Private testing price is market-based, but Talty layers permit and compliance deadlines around the work. Repair and retest cost can jump if an OSSF property has to replace a failed DCV with an RPZ instead of repairing in place. Talty's published paperwork also shows a $50 tester registration fee and a $195 irrigation permit and inspection fee, which helps explain why district jobs can feel heavier than a simple plumber visit.
