The tests your site owes each year.
Most sites hear about a test from a notice. This is the calendar, with the rule behind each line, so you can see what is due before anyone writes to you.
| Device or system | How often | The rule | Who lodges or keeps the record |
|---|---|---|---|
| Testable backflow devices, such as RPZ and double check valves | When installed, then every 12 months | Sydney Water requires high and medium hazard devices to be tested by an accredited backflow plumber. A site that has not been assessed is treated as high hazard. | The tester lodges the results with Sydney Water within 2 days |
| Fire service connections | Every 12 months | Sydney Water requires a testable double check detector assembly on sprinkler and fire hydrant connections. As a medium hazard device it follows the same annual test rule as other backflow devices. | The tester, with Sydney Water |
| Emergency showers and eyewash stations | Regular activation, plus inspection and flow testing at the intervals in AS 4775:2026 | Workplaces that use hazardous chemicals must provide suitable emergency equipment (SafeWork NSW code of practice). AS 4775 was reissued in June 2026. | The site keeps the activation log; the plumber certifies the flow test |
| Gas installations | Every job | Certificate of Compliance through Building Commission NSW’s eCert portal, mandatory since 1 March 2026 | The gasfitter, within 5 business days |
| Grease traps and trade waste | Approval before discharge, then regular pump-outs | Sydney Water approval for trade wastewater; a grease trap needs a connection agreement | Pump-outs by an authorised liquid waste transporter, not the plumber |
Send us the list of testable devices on your site and when each one is due. Where the dates allow, we test backflow devices, fire service assemblies and emergency showers and eyewash in one visit, lodge what needs lodging with Sydney Water, and send back one list of what was tested and when each item is next due.

Long-Term Commercial Plumbing Accounts in Western Sydney.
Peter has been plumbing since 2000 and has run PVS since 2017. The accounts on the right have stayed through all of it: a club, a group of brick plants, a plasterboard factory, a manufacturer and an environmental services depot.
They stay for the reasons a new account would want: the same crew on each visit, the paperwork already in the contractor system, and no re-quoting argument on every callout.
References from a site like yours are available on request.
