Backflow Compliance in Dieppe

Dieppe's rapid commercial expansion — anchored by big-box retail on Champlain Street, a growing industrial park, and an increasing density of medical and professional offices — means a large and growing number of commercial properties must maintain annual backflow testing compliance. The City of Dieppe administers water services in conjunction with Greater Moncton Water Services, and both bodies enforce cross-connection control requirements under By-Law 15-01. New commercial builds throughout the municipality are required to include approved backflow prevention assemblies as a condition of water service, making Dieppe one of the most active markets for new assembly commissioning in Greater Moncton.
