(A) An accessible, adequate, safe and potable supply of water shall be provided in each mobile home park, capable of furnishing a minimum of 150 gallons per day per mobile home space. The development of an independent water supply to serve the mobile home park shall be made only after express approval has been granted by the board of health. Where a public supply of water of such quality is available, connection shall be made thereto, and its supply shall be used exclusively.
(B) The water system of the mobile home park shall be connected by pipes to all buildings and all mobile home spaces.
(C) All water piping shall be constructed and maintained in accordance with state and local law; the water piping system shall not be connected with nonpotable or questionable water supplies and shall be protected against the hazards of backflow or back siphonage.
(D) Where drinking fountains are provided for public use, they shall be of a type and in locations approved by the health officer.
(E) Individual water service connections which are provided for direct use by mobile homes shall be so constructed that they will not be damaged by the parking of such mobile homes. The mobile home park water system shall be adequate to provide 20 pounds per square inch of pressure at all mobile home connections.
(F) Where an independent or nonpublic water system is used to serve the mobile home park with water obtained from wells, the wells shall have been approved by the health officer and shall have been drilled or dug. Springs or other sources of supply shall not be used unless approved by the health officer.
(G) Every well shall be located and constructed in such manner that neither underground nor surface contamination will reach the water supply from any source. A minimum distance of 150 feet shall be maintained between the water supply and any cesspool. A minimum distance of 100 feet shall be maintained between the water supply and any other possible source of contamination, except that sewers or pipes through which sewage may back up shall be located at least 50 feet from any well or water-suction pipeline. Where such sewers or pipes are specifically constructed to provide adequate safeguards and when specifically authorized by the board of health, such sewers or pipes through which sewage may back up may be closer than 50 feet, but not less than 30 feet from a well.
(H) No well casings, pumps, pumping machinery or suction pipes shall be located in any pit, room or space extending below ground level nor in any room or space above ground which is walled in or otherwise enclosed unless such rooms, whether above or below ground, have free drainage by gravity to the surface of the ground. The floor of rooms above ground shall be at least six inches above the ground’s surface. All floors shall be watertight and sloped from the pump pedestal to the drain. The pedestal shall be not less than 12 inches above the floor.
(I) All water storage reservoirs shall be watertight and constructed of impervious material; all overflows and vents of such reservoirs shall be effectively screened. Open reservoirs are prohibited. Manholes shall be constructed with overlapping covers so as to prevent the entrance of contaminated material. Overflow pipes from a reservoir shall not connect to any pipe in which sewage or polluted water may back up.
(J) Underground stopcocks and waste cocks shall not be installed on any connection.
