ASSE 5110 Backflow Tester exam requirements & cost
Straight from the certifying body — separate from what we charge for the study portal.
The ASSE 5110 written examination has 100 multiple-choice questions and a 120-minute time limit, and the minimum passing score is 70 percent (ASSE 5110 candidate handbook, revision 9/17/2026). Certification also requires a separate hands-on practical on ASSE 1013, 1015, 1020 and 1056 assemblies, which this portal does not simulate. This portal's practice set has 100 written-style questions across six content areas. The written examination is passed with a score of 70 percent or higher, and the practical is a separate pass/fail requirement. You need both to earn the certification. ASSE publishes the current examination fee on its website and the ASSE-approved school collects it, often together with the school's own training and administrative fees. ASSE does not set the prices schools charge, so no fee is quoted here. The content outline spreads questions across 6 areas; the largest are Assemblies, Devices and Methods (25.0%); Terminology (15.0%); Basic Hydraulics (15.0%). The full list of areas and weights is on the portal exam page. ASSE requires at least five years of documented practical experience, a 40-hour training course from an ASSE-approved school, a passing written exam of 70% or higher, a passing practical exam and agreement to the Code of Professional Conduct.
