§ 150-14. Elevation; changes in direction.

Whenever possible, the building sewer shall be brought to the building at an elevation below the basement floor. No building sewer shall be laid parallel to or within three feet of any bearing wall which might thereby be weakened. The depths shall be sufficient to afford protection from frost. The building sewer shall be laid at uniform grade. The line shall be straight or laid with properly curved pipe and fittings. Changes in direction greater than 45° shall be provided with cleanouts accessible for cleaning building sewers which are too low to permit gravity flow to the POTW and shall be lifted by artificial means approved by the City Plumbing Inspector for discharge to the POTW.
