This device must be installed by a licensed plumber <br />or the homeowner. This requirement is in place to prevent back <br />flow contamination of your water and the city's public water <br />system. <br /> <br />In order to locate and inspect these systems, the City of Ramsey <br />requires a permit for all lawn irrigation systems. If a system is to <br />be installed by a contractor, they must be licensed with the city <br />and obtain the permit. If a homeowner is installing the system <br />they may obtain the permit. Please provide the approved type of <br />backflow preventer information when applying for the permit. <br />The cost ofthepernlit is $47.50. The city does not need a layout <br />of the system. . <br /> <br />Any irrigation system tbat contains pumps or injectors for the <br />addition of chemicals and/or fertilizers is considered a greater <br />contamination hazard and requires a greater level of protection. <br />All system designs shall meet Minnesota Plumbing Cod.e <br />4715.1900 and related sections for potable water protection. <br />Contact City inspection staff or a licensed plumber for further <br />details. - <br /> <br />As per Minnesota State Statute 103G.298, all automatically <br />operated landscape irritation systems shall have furnished and <br />installed tecbnology that inhibits or interrupts operation of the <br />irrigation system during periods of sufficient moisture.
