In terms of fire protection systems, the Backflow Prevention Program only addresses existing facilities. Only fire systems that contain anti-freeze, foam injection, or other chemical additives or are connected with a private water supply require a Reduce Pressure Principle (RP) backflow prevention device to be installed.
