Each trailer court shall be supplied with water from an approved public potable water supply, if available. If an approved public potable water supply is not available, a water supply, approved by the local Board of Health, shall be developed in accordance with the provisions of the Standards for Construction of Water Supply Systems for Realty Improvements promulgated by the State Commissioner of Health in accordance with c. 199, P.L. 1954,[1] and if not, a public water supply system as defined herein shall be considered a semipublic water supply.

Water systems shall be designed to meet fire protection requirements of Article XIV and shall include services to all buildings and all trailer spaces. The minimum capacity of the system shall be such as may be required by the authority responsible for fire protection and shall not be less than 125 gallons per trailer space per day. Piping shall be so arranged as to provide six gallons per minute at each trailer space outlet with a residual pressure of approximately 20 pounds per square inch with 20% of the outlets flowing at the prescribed rate of six gallons per minute. The water system of each trailer court shall be piped to all buildings and all trailer spaces.
No physical connection may be made between an approved public potable water supply and an unapproved water supply. A semipublic water supply is considered as an unapproved water supply for the purpose of this section even though it may meet the potable water standards adopted by the State Department of Health.
Individual water service connections provided for direct use by trailer coaches shall be so constructed that they will not be damaged by the parking of such coaches. The connections shall consist of a riser terminating at least four inches above the ground level, with two three-fourths-inch valved outlets threaded so that a flexible metallic tubing with a screw connection may be attached between the riser and coach. The ground surface around the riser pipe shall be graded to divert surface drainage away from the connection.
Drinking fountains shall be installed in or near service buildings and in the playground area. The fountains shall be constructed of impervious material with the nozzle protected with a rustproof guard and shall conform to the American Standard Specifications for drinking fountains, ASA Z4.2-1942.
