Backflow Testing & Certification, in practice
Most Middle Tennessee utilities require a backflow preventer on any irrigation connection and a certified annual test on it. It exists because an irrigation line is a direct path from standing yard water into the drinking supply, and it is not paperwork for its own sake.
Freeze damage is the most common failure here. A short hard freeze on an assembly that was not drained or insulated will crack the body, and that is a replacement rather than a repair.
