2.4.2.3.(1)

Intent 1:

To exempt certain fixtures that discharge clear waste from the requirement for an indirect connection in Clause 2.4.2.1.(1)(e), and to permit direct connection to a branch that:

• has a size of not less than 1.25 in., and
• is terminated above the flood level rim of a directly connected fixture to form an air break.

This is to limit the probability of backflow, which could lead to sewage contamination of clear water, which could lead to unsanitary conditions, which could lead to harm to persons.
