Check the O-rings and seals for signs of wear or damage. If necessary, replace these components with new ones from a Febco repair kit or contact the manufacturer for replacement parts. It's essential to use genuine parts to ensure the proper functioning of the PVB.

With the PVB reassembled, turn on the main water supply and check for any leaks or abnormal behavior. If everything looks good, open all faucets and let the water run for a few minutes to flush out any air or debris in the system.

It's also recommended to have a professional plumber perform an annual backflow preventer test to ensure the PVB is functioning correctly.

Carefully inspect the poppet assembly for any signs of damage or debris that may be preventing it from functioning properly.

Begin by shutting off the main water supply to your property. This will prevent water from flowing through the PVB during the repair process.

Open a faucet located downstream of the PVB to relieve any remaining pressure in the system. This step is crucial to prevent any accidents or injuries.

If you notice any debris, sediment, or mineral buildup inside the PVB, it's essential to clean it thoroughly. Use a mild detergent and a brush to scrub away any deposits. Rinse the components with clean water to ensure they are free from any residue.

Remember, proper maintenance and regular inspections are key to keeping your PVB in optimal condition and ensuring the safety of your water supply system.

Before we begin, it's important to note that working with water supply systems requires a basic understanding of plumbing and some tools.

Once all the components have been cleaned and inspected, carefully reassemble the PVB in the reverse order of disassembly. Make sure to tighten all screws or bolts securely but avoid over-tightening, as it may damage the PVB.
