Budget estimate

$15,000 – $50,000

The district likely has several hundred backflow preventer assemblies (estimates range from 150‑250 units). Typical testing fees for certified backflow testers run about $75‑$150 per device, plus administrative reporting. Assuming an average of $100 per assembly, the total contract value would fall between $15,000 and $25,000. Additional costs for travel across multiple facilities and a final compiled report could raise the upper bound to roughly $50,000. Factors influencing the final amount include the exact number of assemblies, any required remedial actions, and the geographic spread of sites.
