The Paperwork Problem Every Plumber Knows Too Well

You became a plumber to work with your hands, not shuffle papers. But compliance doesn't care.

  • Different Cities, Different Rules: Plano wants a PDF. Frisco has a portal. Denton wants paper mail. Every city is different.
  • 30 Minutes of Paperwork: The test takes 15 minutes. The paperwork takes double that — for every single job.
  • One Mistake = Lost Client: Wrong form? Missing field? The city fines your client, and you lose their business.
  • Compliance Headaches: No central record. No audit trail. One slip and you're scrambling for proof.

How FlowCert Works

From test to ready-to-submit PDF in under 30 seconds. No paperwork, no headaches.

  1. Step 1 — Scan & Enter: Snap a photo of the valve plate to auto-read the serial, or type it in. Enter your PSI readings — that's it.
  2. Step 2 — Auto-Detect City: FlowCert uses GPS to identify the city and automatically loads their exact requirements.
  3. Step 3 — Download & Send: We generate the perfect PDF with your signature attached. Download, email, or upload to any city portal — you're done in seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a backflow prevention test report?

A backflow prevention test report is a mandatory document that licensed plumbers must submit to city water departments after testing backflow prevention devices. These devices protect the public water supply from contamination by ensuring water flows in only one direction.

How does FlowCert work?

FlowCert automatically detects your job location via GPS, identifies the correct city requirements, and generates a perfectly formatted PDF report. Your digital signature is auto-applied, and the report is ready to download, email, or upload to any city portal. One-click email submission is currently rolling out to select Texas cities.

Which cities does FlowCert support?

FlowCert's database covers 565 cities across all 50 states, with 48 fully verified cities that have research-backed submission instructions. We're continuously verifying more cities—and plumbers can flag corrections from the field to help improve accuracy.

How much time can I save with FlowCert?

Most plumbers save 20-30 minutes per test report. If you perform 5 tests per day, that's over 2 hours saved daily — time you can spend completing additional jobs and increasing revenue.

Is FlowCert compliant with state regulations?

Yes. FlowCert generates reports that meet all state requirements including TCEQ (Texas), CDPH (California), FDEP (Florida), and other state environmental agencies. Our digital signatures are legally valid, and we maintain complete audit trails for compliance documentation.
