water levels. No pot, bottle or "D" trap will be permitted nor any form of trap that is not self-cleaning, nor that has interior chambers or mechanism nor any trap except earthenware ones that depend upon interior partitions for a seal. In case there is an additional fixture required in building and it is impossible to re-vent pipe for the trap, the building department may designate the kind of trap to be used. This shall not be construed to allow traps without re-vents in new buildings. SEC. 27. SAFE AND REFRIGERATOR PIPES.--Safe-waste pipes must not connect directly with any part of the plumbing system. Safe-waste pipes must discharge over an open, water-supplied, publicly-placed, ordinary-used sink, placed not more than 3-1/2 feet above the cellar floor. The safe waste from a refrigerator must be trapped at the bottom of the line only and must not discharge upon the ground floor, but over an ordinary open pan, or some properly-trapped, water-supplied sink, as above. In no case shall the refrigerator waste pipe discharge into a sink located in a living room. The branches on vertical lines must be made by means of "Y" fittings and be carried to the safe with as much pitch as possible. Where there is an offset on the refrigerator waste pipe in the cellar, there must be clean-outs placed. These clean-outs must be of brass. In tenement and lodging houses the refrigerator waste pipe must extend above the roof, and not be larger than 1-1/2 inches and the branches not smaller than 1-1/4 inches. Refrigerator waste pipes, except in tenement houses, and all safe-waste pipes, must have brass flap valve on the lower ends. Lead safes must be graded and neatly turned over beveled strips at their edges. SEC. 28. VENT-PIPE MATERIAL.--Material for vent pipes shall be of lead, brass, enameled iron or galvanized iron. SEC. 29. VENTILATION OF TRAPS AND SOIL LINES.--Traps shall be protected from siphonage or air pressure by special vent pipes of a size of not less than the following tables: -----------------+----------------+----------------------------- | Maximum | Number of traps vented | length in feet | Size of pipe +----------------+------------+----------------
