Latest version.
  • Before approving the issuance of a permit as required herein, the Plumbing Inspector shall find that the system complies with the following standards of operation:

    Use of Borough water. Use of Borough water shall be limited to amount necessary to fill the system or replace the amount lost by evaporation and flushing.
    B. 
    Construction of makeup device. The makeup water connection required herein shall be so arranged that the supply has a physical break between the Borough water lines and such device whereby it is impossible for water to siphon back into the water lines in case of low pressure.
    C. 
    Discharge into Borough sewers.
    (1) 
    The discharge into the Borough sanitary sewage system shall be limited to amount of water necessary to purge the system for repairs, flushing or seasonal shutdown, or the disposal of condensate away from the evaporators.
    (2) 
    There shall be a physical break in the lines leading to the sewer lines to prevent siphoning of sewage into the system.
