Spring Valley, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 147 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 147-40
Fuel supply connection
Operative Text
Fuel-burning equipment shall be permanently fastened and connected in place. Fuel supply connection to such equipment shall be made with pipe or tubing of solid metal.
Section 147-40 of Spring Valley's housing code establishes that fuel-burning equipment must be permanently secured and fixed in position rather than left movable or loosely installed. Additionally, any fuel supply line connecting to such equipment must be constructed from solid metal pipe or tubing — flexible or non-metal connections are not permitted under this rule. This provision is aimed at ensuring the structural integrity and safety of fuel connections in residential and other covered properties.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Spring Valley Code § 147-40, compliant property operators ensure that all fuel-burning appliances and equipment are permanently fastened and anchored in place at the time of installation. Fuel supply lines serving that equipment are made exclusively from solid metal pipe or tubing, not flexible hoses or non-metal materials. Routine inspections of fuel connections help operators confirm that existing installations continue to meet the permanent-fastening and solid-metal-connection standards set by this section.

Section 147-40 of the Spring Valley Code gives occupants a basis to raise concerns if fuel-burning equipment in their unit appears to be unsecured or connected via non-solid-metal fuel lines. Tenants who observe such conditions may report them to the local building or housing inspection authority, which can investigate whether the installation meets the code's requirements. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Spring Valley's housing code can help residents understand what documentation or steps are generally available when a potential violation of § 147-40 is identified.
