Backflow Testing, Certification & Repair in Fairfield Township, NJ
Fairfield Township is a rural Cumberland County municipality in the county’s central section, encompassing the historic community of Fairton along the Cohansey River and extensive agricultural lands that reflect the township’s deep agricultural heritage.

Water Service in Fairfield Township
Fairfield Township is served in part by connections to the Cumberland County Utilities Authority wastewater system, which serves portions of Bridgeton and surrounding communities. For drinking water, portions of the township may have public water connections — some through the Bridgeton water system for properties on the city’s periphery, and others on private well systems for rural and agricultural properties. Annual backflow testing is required for all properties with public water connections and cross-connections under N.J.A.C. 7:14B backflow regulations.
Historic Fairton and the Cohansey River
Fairton — the township’s primary community center on the Cohansey River — has a collection of historic residential and agricultural properties dating from the 18th and 19th centuries. The Cohansey River through Fairton is a tidal waterway that connects to the Delaware Bay, making water quality along this stretch directly relevant to the bay’s ecosystem. Annual backflow certification for properties in Fairton — particularly those with irrigation systems or other cross-connections near the river — contributes to protecting this sensitive tidal watershed.
