Section 1. Before any person, firm or corporation shall be permitted to erect or install in any residence or other building, or upon any premises, any oil- burning device or equipment for heating purposes, together with tanks or containers for storage or fuel oil, such person, firm or corporation shall first secure a permit therefor from the Plumbing Inspector of the City of Dubuque. No permit shall be issued unless and until an application has been made therefor and a fee of $3.00 has been paid. Such application shall be accompanied by a plat or drawing showing the location of the building and premises and the make or type of burner to be installed and shall be accompanied by a statement as to whether or not such burner has been approved by the National Board of Fire Underwriters. If such equip- ment has not been thus approved, then a full and complete specifica- tion of such burner and equipment shall accompany the application. The plat or drawing shall also show the location and size of all tanks, boil- ers, pipes, burners, electrical wiring, and room or apartment in which the same is to be installed, the location of all doors, windows and other means of ventilation. When such application is filed with the Plumbing Inspector he shall in- vestigate the same and if satisfied that such proposed installation is in conformity with this and all other ordinances of the City of Dubuque, he shall grant such permit, but if he be not so satisfied he may refuse such permit or withhold it until such time as the applicant shall conform such application to the requirements of this and all other ordinances of said City. All installation shall be under the jurisdiction of the Plumb- ing Inspector and he shall have auth- ority to enforce compliance with the provisions of this ordinance. Paragraph ......... Fuel Oils. Section 2. Oil used for fuel under these regu- lations shall be a topped or distilled oil having a flash point of not less than 100 degrees Fahrenheit, and such oils shall not be fed from the tank to the suction pump at a pre- heated temperature higher than for- ty degrees Fahrenheit below its flash point. Paragraph Tanks. Section 3. Each storage tank for the storage of fuel oil used in connection with an oil- burning device or equipment where the capacity of the tank ex- ceeds 275 gallons, shall have piping connections only from the top of the tank and openings or piping connec- tions at points other than at the top of said tank are hereby prohibited. Each storage tank with a greater capacity than 275 gallons when placed on the outside of any resi- dence or building shall be buried un- der ground with the top of the tank not less than fourteen inches below the surface ,and when such tank is installed in the basement or cellar of any residence or building it shall be set on a bed of sand six inches in depth spread over a firm foundation and shall be walled in with a brick wall at least eight inches in thick- ness and a firm packing of sand placed between the brick wall and outside of the tank at all points, and a covering of sand over the top of the tank of at least twelve inches in thickness.

All tanks with a capacity exceed- ing 275 gallons wherever located shall be so placed that the top there- of shall be below either the level of the burner or below the auxiliary tank, if one is installed, or the anti - siphon device on the pipe line lead- ing to burner. Storage tanks with a capacity of 275 gallons or less may be used and piping connections may be made from tank to burner from the bottom of the tank to permit the gravity flow of oil from tank to burner, but in such case the pipe line shall be equipped with an approved auto- matic shut -off valve to stop the flow of oil through the line in the event the burner fails to ignite or the flame is extinguished. Such tank may be located inside the building and shall have no connection with any other tank or source of oil supply. An auxiliary tank may be located on the inside of any building and used in connection with an outside storage tank, but the capacity of such auxiliary tank shall not exceed 60 gallons. The oil may be fed by gravity flow to the burner through a pipe line leading from the auxiliary tank to the burner, but in such event such uipe line must have upon it an approved automatic shutoff valve that will stop the flow of oil through the pipe line in the event the burner fails to ignite or the flame is extinguished. All storage tanks of 275 gallons capacity or less and each auxiliary tank shall be placed on substantial incombustible supports, securely fas- tened on their base so as to prop- erly hold the tank in place and avoid strain on the pipe.

Un- less auxiliary tanks are filled in the same manner as storage tanks they shall be filled by pumping from stor- age tanks and when filled by pump- ing from storage tanks such auxiliary tanks shall be provided with an over- flow pipe, draining to storage tanks, which pipe shall be not less than one size larger than the supply pipe from pump and shall have no valves or obstructions therein. Par. Oil level indicating de- vice. Section 7. All storage tanks shall be equipped with a testwell or gauging device so designed as to prevent escape of oil or vapor with- in the buildings.
