As infrastructure gets older, sewer and water mains become more likely to fail. Failure of water mains, storm sewers, and sanitary sewers may cause more fluid flow into the sanitary sewers, which then may cause backups into sewer pipes into residences.

Many homes have backwater valves already.  It has become common practice in residential construction to include a backwater valve as part of the floor drain, but it is not required the City or the State plumbing code. Sewer blockages are impossible to predict. While backwater valves are not required for homes, we recommend them for most properties.  A plumber will be able to determine whether you have a functional backwater valve.

If eligible, our plumber will contact you and set up a time to visit your home and do an inspection. The inspection will determine that there is no existing backwater valve as well as identify any clear water connections to the sanitary sewer. If desired, you can ask the plumber to provide a quote during their inspection.

The program offers participating homeowners a rebate of 75% up to $1,500 to have a backwater preventer installed if it is determined that their property is not currently protected by a functional backwater valve.  The pilot program will also be made available upon request to properties outside of the limits of the above Public Works contracts.  Eligibility for inclusion is limited to 1- and 2- unit residential properties that do not have an existing backflow valve and were constructed more than five years ago.

Work shall be completed within one year of the City notifying the property owner of the eligibility for reimbursement. The plumber will need a City of Madison Building Permit. Completed work will need to inspected by Building Inspection to close out the permit.
