LOCAL VISIT PLANNING
Longmont moved tester submissions to SwiftComply
Longmont says that beginning February 2, 2026, testers must submit reports through SwiftComply and that emailed reports are no longer accepted. The property’s annual due date can fall within the City’s scheduled testing season, so the current notice should be kept with the quote request.

LONGMONT QUESTIONS
Timing, systems, and test reports.
When is a Longmont backflow assembly tested?
The City requires testing at installation, after a repair, after relocation, and by the property’s annual due date. The exact annual date appears in the City record or notice and is confirmed before scheduling.
What happens if the Longmont due date is missed?
Longmont publishes a staged enforcement process that begins with a notice of violation after the due date and can escalate. If the deadline is close or already passed, include it in the quote note so timing can be reviewed first.
Does Longmont allow a failed irrigation DCVA to remain in place?
The City says a failed irrigation DCVA must either be replaced with an RP within 60 days or repaired and placed on a two-year replacement timeline. Repair and replacement are separate from the testing quote.
OFFICIAL LOCAL GUIDANCE
SwiftComply is Longmont’s current tester-report system.
The City’s official backflow page names SwiftComply as the required submission system beginning February 2, 2026. It also publishes annual testing, due-date, enforcement, and irrigation-assembly guidance, so older email-filing instructions are not used.
