What Is the Exact Process for a Cross-Connection Control Survey with Cover Your Brass?
1.
What Is the Exact Process for a Cross-Connection Control Survey with Cover Your Brass?
We schedule your cross-connection control survey based on property access availability and local authority timelines. If you are buying a house, this step helps verify compliance with the potable water system before escrow closes and ownership transfers. During scheduling, we confirm property type, water service configuration, and municipal requirements to define survey scope, regulatory expectations, and preparation needs for an accurate on-site evaluation.
4.
Comprehensive Hazard Identification & Mapping
We identify and map every potential cross connection within the water system. Our licensed cross connection control surveyor documents connection points, assesses protective measures, and categorizes contamination exposure. This structured mapping process creates a documented compliance record for regulatory review.
7.
Digital Report Delivered Same Day or Next Business Day
We deliver a comprehensive digital cross connection control survey report on the same day or the next business day. The report outlines identified hazards, assigned risk levels, device evaluations, compliance status, and prioritized remediation guidance. This documentation supports submission to local authorities and provides property owners with a clear, structured roadmap for regulatory compliance and system protection.
2.
Pre-Survey Questionnaire & Utility Document Review
Before the site visit, we review utility records, prior inspection reports, plumbing diagrams, and existing backflow documentation. Our certified cross-connection control survey team analyzes system modifications, historical compliance status, and reported deficiencies to identify potential cross-connection risks. This structured document review aligns the upcoming inspection with regulatory standards and prepares our surveyor to conduct targeted hazard identification.
5.
Risk Assessment
After completing hazard identification, we conduct a formal risk assessment to determine the severity of contamination and its compliance impact. We classify each cross connection according to Southern California regulatory standards and public health exposure levels. This prioritization framework enables property owners to address high-risk conditions promptly while maintaining structured documentation for municipal reporting and ongoing compliance verification.
3.
On-Site Walk-Through
Our certified cross-connection surveyor conducts a detailed walk-through of all plumbing infrastructure connected to the potable water supply. We inspect irrigation systems, fire lines, auxiliary supplies, booster pumps, and mechanical equipment connections to verify system configuration and detect cross-connection exposure. This on-site evaluation confirms real-world conditions and documents physical connections that impact regulatory compliance.
6.
Evaluation of Any Existing Backflow Devices
Our certified cross-connection surveyor evaluates all existing backflow prevention devices to verify their accuracy of installation, classification, and code compliance. We inspect Reduced Pressure Principle Assemblies, Double Check Valve Assemblies, and related components to confirm authority acceptance. If deficiencies exist, we document corrective recommendations to restore protection, maintain potable water safety, and support regulatory approval.
