(a) From the curb box to the meter, each service pipe or pipes must be copper (type K soft roll type) and must be laid under the direction of the Water Division. The applicant shall first have the Water Division establish the location of the curb box. When this has been done, the service line may be installed beginning at a point six feet outside the property line and laid at a depth of four feet. The City shall make the connection to the curb box. Under Section 921.12(c), where a meter pit is required the applicant shall connect to the City service line and install the meter setting and remaining house service.
(b) All service pipes, plumbing and fixtures must be of sufficient strength, with a sufficient margin of safety, to withstand changes in domestic pressure, which may range from 50 to 120 pounds per square inch.
(c) All consumers shall keep their own service pipes and apparatus in good repair and protected from frost at their own risk and expense. By the acceptance of water service each consumer agrees that no claims shall be made against the City by reason of the breaking of any service pipe or service cock, or from damage arising from shutting off water to repair mains, or for other purposes.
