Giải thích
A cross-connection is any actual or potential link between the potable (drinking) water system and a non-potable source such as sewage, chemicals, or an irrigation line. If pressure drops or reverses, contaminants can be drawn or pushed into the drinking water. Controlling cross-connections with air gaps and backflow assemblies is a primary way plumbers protect public health.
