Water supply
Operative Text
A. General. An accessible, adequate, safe and potable supply of water shall be provided in each mobile home park. Where a public supply of water of satisfactory quantity, quality and pressure is available, connection shall be made thereto and its supply used exclusively. B. Distribution system. (1) The water supply system of the mobile home park shall be connected by pipes to all mobile homes, buildings and other facilities requiring water. (2) All water piping, fixtures and other equipment shall be constructed and maintained in accordance with state and local regulations. (3) 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. (4) The system shall be so designed and maintained as to provide a pressure of not less than 20 pounds per square inch under normal operating conditions at service buildings and other locations requiring potable water supply. (5) The water meter shall be installed within the mobile home. A shutoff shall be installed ahead of the meter. C. Water risers. (1) Individual water riser pipes shall be located within the confined area of the mobile home stand at a point where the water connection will approximate a vertical position.

The water outlet shall be capped when a mobile home does not occupy the lot. (3) Adequate provisions shall be made to prevent freezing of service lines, valves and riser pipes and to protect risers from heaving and thawing actions of the ground during freezing weather. Surface drainage shall be diverted from the location of the riser pipe. (4) A shutoff valve below the frost line shall be provided near the water riser pipe on each mobile home lot. (5) Underground stop and waste valves shall not be installed on any water service.
Section 179-24 of Albion Village's Code of Ordinances Chapter 179 establishes detailed standards for water supply systems in mobile home parks. The rule requires that each park connect to a public water supply when one is available, maintain safe and potable water throughout the distribution system, and meet specific pressure minimums of at least 20 psi under normal conditions. It also sets out precise physical requirements for water riser pipes, shutoff valves, and freeze protection measures to ensure consistent, safe water delivery to every mobile home lot.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home parks in Albion Village are generally expected to maintain full compliance with § 179-24 by ensuring the park's water system connects exclusively to an approved public supply wherever one is available. Compliant operators typically verify that water pressure meets the 20 psi minimum at service buildings, install meters and shutoff valves inside each mobile home, and keep riser pipes capped on unoccupied lots. Ongoing maintenance under § 179-24 also includes protecting service lines, valves, and riser pipes from freezing conditions and ensuring no cross-connections exist with nonpotable water sources.
