No, he put it on counterclockwise like you're suppose to do. It's obvious if you pay attention to detail you will see that he screws it on clockwise. Just to post something when you're the one who's actually wrong makes you look like a jackass.

I agree idahoshas. I take it your from Idaho where in most cities you need to have the bf checked once a year by a licensed backflow tester. ie cda, pf, hayden

no testable assembly required? pretty laxed regs. to allow for a single check that is buried and could easily be removed and never checked again. but like you said, all city and state regulations differ. the problem i have with those types is, if the check malfunctions, you will never know. so what is the point unless you can test a mechanical assembly? i truly believe the EPA, state DEQ and health agencies need to start making more stringent laws.
