1. 1Protect accessKeep occupants away from discharge and electrical hazards. If water is spreading, contact the building lead immediately and call the plumbing/backflow service provider.
2. 2Identify the assemblyFrom normal access, record its make, model, size, service label and visible test tag. Confirm whether it serves domestic water, irrigation or fire protection before anyone considers isolation.
3. 3Describe the dischargeRecord whether it is a drip or sustained flow, when it began and whether a supply interruption occurred. Do not cycle valves to reproduce the event.
4. 4Check surrounding conditions visuallyReport a blocked receiving drain or damaged air-gap fitting without obstructing the assembly outlet. The Watts 909 reference below applies to that series, not every installed assembly.
5. 5Arrange qualified testingA trained backflow technician should diagnose and test the assembly using the correct instructions. Document repair and any required retest before treating the event as closed.

Record the exact location, observed condition, time, actions taken, person contacted and follow-up owner. Keep unresolved items visible. A completed checklist means the check was performed; it does not automatically mean the equipment passed or is safe.
