Working Pressure covers the full demographic range of our readers, which includes backflow prevention, plumbing/mechanical, water quality, HVAC, fire protection, medical gas, and water utility.
Regular content of Working Pressure includes columns for product and personnel standards, product and professional certification, backflow industry updates and opinions, engineering perspectives, new products, industry news, product repair, and quarterly quizzes. Our multiple platforms – magazine, website, and email – provide a balance of education and entertainment to our dedicated readers.
Working Pressure also includes one to three feature articles per issue, determined by what’s happening in the industry. These articles are longer than our columns and dive in a bit deeper.
