Fast answer

Who, when, and what device?

Irving requires backflow test reports to be submitted online through Envirotrax within 10 days of the test date, with permit verification needed for newly replaced or installed assemblies before testing.

Who is affected
Irving customers with reportable backflow assemblies, newly installed or replaced assemblies, failed tests, and testers submitting through Envirotrax.

Risk if missed
Irving's public instructions make online Envirotrax submission the accepted path, and tester credentials, test kit calibration forms, and registration fees must stay updated in the tester profile.

Local detail

Property, device, and enforcement notes

Open the parts that match the property and system. These details stay subordinate to the fast workflow above.

Program and failure notes
  • In the event of a failed test, Irving says the customer must be notified that repair or replacement and retesting are required.
  • Reports must be submitted online through Envirotrax within 10 days of the test date.
  • Replacement assemblies should include the old serial number on the test report.
  • Reports must be submitted online through Envirotrax within 10 days.
  • Physical copies are not required for the City submission.
  • Tester credentials and test kit calibration forms must stay current.
Residential notes
  • Residential impact usually appears when a device is newly installed, replaced, or due for a reportable test.
  • The customer should receive a copy of the backflow test form for every test performed.
Commercial notes
  • Commercial owners should keep the 10-day Envirotrax reporting window visible to the tester.
  • Replacement assemblies need permit verification before testing.
Irrigation

Irving's public page focuses on assembly reporting and replacement/installation permit verification, so irrigation users should first confirm whether the device is newly installed, replaced, or otherwise reportable.

  • Newly installed or replaced assemblies need plumbing permit verification before testing.
  • Replacement assemblies require the old serial number to be noted on the report.
  • Envirotrax is the accepted report path.
Fire line

Irving includes fire protection sprinkler assembly context through the same report and tester-profile workflow.

  • Use the correct assembly type for the hazard.
  • Ask the Backflow Specialist if the assembly appears to be the wrong type.
  • Keep tester credentials and calibration documents current.
Cost and fee context

Private Irving prices vary by assembly and permit context.

Repair and retest pricing depends on the failed assembly and whether replacement permitting is involved.

Irving's public cost signal is more about avoiding late or incomplete Envirotrax reporting than retail test price.
