Backflow Testing, Certification & Repair in Roselle Borough, NJ
Roselle Borough is a diverse, historically significant community in northeastern Union County — a borough of approximately 22,000 residents with a remarkable distinction in American history: Roselle was the first community in the United States to use incandescent electric lighting for an entire town, when Thomas Edison illuminated the community’s streets and homes on January 19, 1883, in a demonstration that foreshadowed the transformation of American life by electric power. This extraordinary historical moment — Roselle as the birthplace of practical electrical distribution to a community — is a source of civic pride and gives the borough a connection to one of the most consequential technological transitions in human history.
South Jersey Backflow provides certified annual backflow testing and certification, backflow repair and rebuild service, and backflow preventer enclosures throughout Roselle Borough for all residential, commercial, and institutional property types.
