What should I do today if my adjuster needs proof?

Call the water purveyor and ask whether it has an accepted-tester list before you book. Ask the tester for an official test report showing the test result, gauge calibration details and pass/fail status, which is the document insurers and purveyors typically need. Tulsa Backflow at (918) 202-2068 can connect you with a local pro for this.

Do annual tests need a new permit?

Annual testing usually does not require a new permit in Tulsa. A permit from the City of Tulsa Planning & Development Department is typically needed only for new installations. If a replacement is needed after a failed test, the Tulsa permit center is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

What should I check when hiring a tester?

Oklahoma has no statewide backflow tester license, so each city or rural water district approves its own testers. Many require ABPA or ASSE certification plus a CIB plumbing license. Ask the pro for proof of licence and insurance before work begins.

How often must backflow assemblies be tested?

Tulsa-area backflow prevention assemblies are commonly required to be tested annually. Test results must be submitted to the City of Tulsa Utilities Department. Keeping a copy of each submitted report makes future insurance requests faster to answer.

Quick answers

Will the new certificate replace the missing paperwork?

A new official test report documents the current test result for your insurer or purveyor. Whether it fully satisfies your adjuster depends on their requirements, so confirm with them first.

Do you provide digital copies for quick submission?

Tulsa Backflow is a referral service and does not issue reports itself. Ask the local pro whether they provide digital copies along with the original report.

Is this re-test valid for my specific insurance claim?

Validity depends on your insurer's requirements and on the tester being accepted by your local utility or district. Ask your adjuster what documentation they accept.
