Pressure Gauge/Test Kit

Testers: If the purveyor(s) in whose jurisdiction you test requires that pressure gauges be registered and checked for accuracy/calibrated you will enter that information in your profile under the Pressure Gauges tab.

Furthermore, use the Pressure Gauges tab to keep your existing pressure gauges calibration certificate up to date as new accuracy/calibrations checks are done.

If new pressure gauges are purchased and put into service they will need to be registered and a calibration certificate picture uploaded.

NOTE: Pressure gauges and Test Kits are the same thing in AquaResource. They may be called either or based on where your live and the terminology backflow trainers choose to use in your area.
