E&J Geothermal Plumbing Service Includes:
Backflow is any unwanted flow of used or nonpotable water, or other substances, into the potable water distribution system. Backflow can be caused by either backsiphonage or backpressure.
Cross Connection:
A cross-connection is a point in plumbing system where it is possible for a nonpotable substance to come into contact with the potable drinking water supply.
Backsiphonage:
Backsiphonage is backflow caused by negative pressure in a portion of the distribution system. If the system pressure drops due to a water main break or fire hydrant use, it can cause negative flow in portions of the distribution system.
Backpressure:
Backpressure is backflow caused when pressure in the supply piping is higher than pressure in the distribution system. Some possible causes of higher supply piping pressure can be caused by a pump, boiler or elevation difference.

The Differences
Heat Pump Water Heaters
HPWH can save the average household approximately $250 per year on its electric bills compared to a standard electric water heater. Larger families - that typically use more hot water - will save even more!
Traditional Water Heaters
Traditional Tank Style Water Heaters are an economical choice and have a much quicker recovery time compared to an electric water heater along with affordable operating costs.
