§ 6025 Conduit Screen Removal Rules

Key Takeaways

  • •If you own a water pipe, you can't remove the screen unless you're fixing or cleaning it.
  • •You can't run the pipe with the screen on if the bypass is closed.
  • •Breaking these rules is against the law.

Example

A farmer has a water pipe with a screen to filter out dirt. One day, he removes the screen to save time but doesn’t clean or repair it.

This is illegal because the screen was removed while water was running, and it wasn’t for cleaning or repairs.
