Practice any scenario you can expect on your ABPA or AWWA Backflow Certification Exams! (Based off of USC's Manual of Cross-Connection Control 10th Edition Testing Procedures)
Choose from a 2, 3, or 5 needle valve test kit/gauge. Choose to test on a DC, RP, PVB or SVB. Choose what condition you want the backflow assembly to be in, we cover all scenarios you can expect on your ABPA or AWWA backflow certification exam, including failures!
Our Backflow Testing Simulator will guide you step by step through each backflow testing scenario.
Every step is listed on the bottom section of the program and narrated for you, making it feel like someone is guiding you step by step.
Use the clues, labels and narration as needed to help you complete the test.
The Clues button will highlight the next component you need to interact with or pay attention to, making it easy to follow and learn!
Practice all scenarios you can expect on your ABPA or AWWA backflow certification exam! This covers scenarios where the backflow is properly operating, and all of the following conditions (depending on the backflow) #1 or #2 Shut Off Valve Leak, #1 or #2 Check Valve Failure, Relief Valve Failure, Air Inlet Valve Failure, Check Valve Failure and a Random Condition option!
Test yourself by simulating a real backflow certification exam:
You can give yourself a time limit of 1 hour to test every backflow type on Random Condition. You can start each test over as much as you may need, but once you submit the backflow test report, the test for that backflow type is over. You will have 1 scenario for each backflow type that you must correctly diagnose and document.
Please Note:
The Backflow Testing Simulator is based on USC's Manual of Cross-Connection Control 10th Edition Testing Procedures. You might need to learn different procedures depending on your state. Please check Classes Near Me for quick reference. (We'll release different testing procedures in the near future)
Here's a demo of our Backflow Testing Simulator. The user is testing an RP backflow assembly that is operating properly with a 5 needle valve test kit.
The user is using a mouse on a desktop computer in the video, but you can do the same thing on touch screen devices like phones, tablets and laptops!
Our Backflow Testing Simulator has been thoroughly tested to ensure it follows testing procedures accurately.

"If you don't have access to a hands-on practice facility this is a great option to get practice. Works best on a desktop. This was my first time taking the tester exam, and it helped me prepare for the practical exam. I passed! I would recommend it to other testers."
– JM, Environmental Compliance Inspector II (10 years) City of Thousand Oaks"Just wanted to let you know I passed the AWWA practical exam today. I think having the simulator the past few days really helped me get the scenarios down. Great job building that! I'll definitely be recommending it to coworkers."
– SH, Field Services Supervisor"Backflow Exam Prep has been a great resource when it comes to preparing for upcoming recertifications and even staying on top of scenarios I don't see as often. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to prepare for a backflow testing certification exam. I was able to study off my phone and my desktop so regardless of where you are you can count on Backflow Exam Prep to help you study."
