Quality Service Company, LLC does backflow testing in Florence, SC and across the Pee Dee. We test, repair and replace backflow preventers for homes, businesses and irrigation systems.
A backflow preventer is a one-way valve on your water line. It stops water in your pipes from flowing back into the public supply.
Why does backflow matter in Florence?
The City of Florence draws its water from wells and the Pee Dee River. Its 2024 water quality report says about 60% comes from groundwater wells. The other 40% comes from the Frank E. Willis Pee Dee River Regional Surface Water Plant.
That system serves about 79,745 people and 30,671 households. A working backflow preventer keeps your pipes and sprinkler lines out of that shared supply.
Two recent events put Florence under a system-wide boil advisory:
- December 2022: a Christmas Day water main break and leaks in homes, businesses and sprinkler systems cost the city at least 20 million gallons. A system-wide boil advisory followed.
- August 2024: river flooding during Debby shut the city’s water plant. System-wide low pressure and a boil advisory followed.
When pressure in the main drops, water can get pulled backward. A working preventer stops that.
