Residential customers may unwittingly cause cross connections when they attach containers of insecticide, herbicide, soapsuds or any other chemical to a garden hose and then connect the other end of the hose to an outside water tap. This article presents examples of residential cross connection and suggests that such incidents may be avoided through use of hose‐bibb backflow preventers.
