New Jersey Safe Drinking Water Act -NJAC 7:10

T urn on your tap water to wash your hands. We do it every day and when we do, we trust that we will have clean water to wash with. How is it that the water we use coming into your home for washing does not mix with the many water pipes draining the dirty water out of our home?

Plumbers keep America safe by installing backflow preventers. Not all homes require it but recently New Jersey developed the SAFE WATER DRINKING ACT- NJAC 7:10 which became effective on March 1, 2025. Residential properties that house 3 or more families are required to have BACKFLOW PREVENTERS that do this job tested and reported. But not all plumbers do this work.

To Test and certify Backflow Preventers, it takes a professional with a special certification by ASSE Sanitary Engineering. This is certification that even Master Plumbers need in addition to all their other training and certificates.

Here at Motion Plumbing, we have ASSE Certified Backflow Preventer Testers to do the job. We test a variety of Backflow preventers for a variety of locations- residential, commercial, industrial and fire suppression. Wherever we need safe water, Motion professionals are ready to make sure your water is safe, and your devices work properly or are serviced or replaced.

For Our local community of Clifton NJ, we are ready to get your backflow preventer tested and within compliance by the June 1, 2025, deadline. Call us now and get scheduled to avoid the $2,000 non-compliance fine with the $250 per week fine following. Keeping our water safe is of the utmost importance. We've got your Back(flow) Clifton.

Tips from a Plumber

HIRING WELL- There is no replacement when it comes to SAVING MONEY as in the practice of HIRING WELL. Hiring a Licensed Master Plumber who is trained and certified in plumbing can save you a lot of money! Here's how...

Too many times as a Master Plumber, I have been hired to correct bad plumbing jobs that the owner has paid a plumbing handyman to do. It’s a shame! I wish people had hired well initially and not have to pay me to “fix the fix” These jobs are frequently done by handymen who have plumbing skills. Some handymen will tell you they are licensed because they're businesses are licensed and taxable but it does not denote proof of an individuals's plumbing skill and training.

This is not the same as a trained, certified and Licensed Master Plumber.

The Master Plumbers license number will be displayed on their truck and website. Each state determines licenses needed for plumbers.

Our #1 tip to SAVE MONEY on plumbing is to call a Licensed Master first and get a FREE estimate

Make the most of the season by following these simple guidelines

The new season is a great reason to make and keep resolutions. Whether it’s eating well or cleaning out the garage, here are some tips for making and keeping resolutions.

Make a list

Lists are great ways to stay on track. Write down some big things you want to accomplish and some smaller things, too.

Check the list regularly

Don’t forget to check in and see how you’re doing. Just because you don’t achieve the big goals right away doesn’t mean you’re not making progress.

Reward yourself

When you succeed in achieving a goal, be it a big one or a small one, make sure to pat yourself on the back.

Think positively

Positive thinking is a major factor in success. So instead of mulling over things that didn’t go quite right, remind yourself of things that did.

Keep in touch with site visitors and boost loyalty

There are so many good reasons to communicate with site visitors. Tell them about sales and new products or update them with tips and information.

Here are some reasons to make blogging part of your regular routine.

Blogging is an easy way to engage with site visitors

Writing a blog post is easy once you get the hang of it. Posts don’t need to be long or complicated. Just write about what you know and do your best to write well.

Show customers your personality

When you write a blog post, you can really let your personality shine through. This can be a great tool for showing your distinct personality.

Blogging is a terrific form of communication

Blogs are a great communication tool. They tend to be longer than social media posts, which gives you plenty of space for sharing insights, handy tips and more.

It’s a great way to support and boost SEO

Search engines like sites that regularly post fresh content and a blog is a great way of doing this. With relevant metadata for every post so search engines can find your content.

Drive traffic to your site

Every time you add a new post, people who have subscribed to it will have a reason to come back to your site. If the post is a good read, they’ll share it with others, bringing even more traffic!

Blogging is free

Maintaining a blog on your site is absolutely free. You can hire bloggers if you like or assign regularly blogging tasks to everyone in your company.

A natural way to build your brand

A blog is a wonderful way to build your brand’s distinct voice. Write about issues that are related to your industry and your customers.

Tips for writing great posts that increase your site traffic

websitebuilder@thryv.com — Tue, 14 May 2024 17:43:40 GMT

Write about something you know. If you don’t know much about a specific topic that will interest your readers, invite an expert to write about it.

Speak to your audience

You know your audience better than anyone else, so keep them in mind as you write your blog posts. Write about things they care about. If you have a company Facebook page, look here to find topics to write about

Take a few moments to plan your post

Once you have a great idea for a post, write the first draft. Some people like to start with the title and then work on the paragraphs. Other people like to start with subtitles and go from there. Choose the method that works for you.

Don’t forget to add images

Be sure to include a few high-quality images in your blog. Images break up the text and make it more readable. They can also convey emotions or ideas that are hard to put into words.

Edit carefully before posting

Once you’re happy with the text, put it aside for a day or two, and then re-read it. You’ll probably find a few things you want to add and a couple more that you want to remove. Have a friend or colleague look it over to make sure there are no mistakes. When your post is error-free, set it up in your blog and publish.
