For Property Managers

Under Ansonia Code of Ordinances ch. 13, art. I § 13-9, compliant property operators ensure that every dwelling unit they rent contains a functioning kitchen sink and a complete bathroom with a lavatory, a bathtub or shower, and a toilet. When a toilet is installed in a room separate from the main bathroom, operators also provide a lavatory basin in that same compartment. Routine inspections and maintenance records help demonstrate ongoing compliance with these baseline plumbing standards.

For Tenants

Ansonia Code of Ordinances ch. 13, art. I § 13-9 gives tenants the right to a dwelling unit with a kitchen sink and a fully equipped bathroom, including a lavatory, a bathtub or shower, and a toilet. If a unit is missing any of these required fixtures, that deficiency may constitute a housing code violation. Tenants who believe their unit falls short of these standards can document the conditions, contact the local housing or code enforcement office, or reach out to a tenant-rights organization to learn about available options.
