What Backflow Test Readings Should I Have?
I have a test report showing test values of 3.6 PSID across the first check, 3.4 PSID across the second check and 2.0 PSID relief valve opening. When I entered these values into my backflow tracking program it showed this as a failed test but the tester marked it passed. Can you explain??????????????????

Your software flagged this test as FAILED because the first check valve reading must be above the relief valve opening point and ≥ 5.0 psid.
