Notice checklist before you call or file

The strongest local backflow pages answer these questions before the user calls anyone. This utility record keeps the notice clues and acceptance gates together so the next step is not just a generic backflow testing search.

  • Due basis: 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.
  • Notice or device clue: Look for the BPAT/tester registration context, Envirotrax record, service address, or assembly identifier.
  • Tester route: View the official tester list
  • Submission path: Irving cross connections and backflow page
  • Acceptance rule: Report acceptance depends on the named portal and the utility-approved tester route; keep proof that the report was submitted.
  • Cost signal: Private Irving prices vary by assembly and permit context.

Owner vs tester

Know who has to act

Property owner Match the notice, address, device type, due date, and utility record before hiring or approving work.
Tester Confirm certification, registration, gauge calibration, and the required submission portal before filing the report.

This split matters because many utility pages reject reports when the tester, credentials, portal entry, or fee path is wrong.
