- Information from the Dekalb County Department of Watershed Management on the watering restrictions that are currently in place.
- New Dekalb County Water Ordinance
- Did you know that Dekalb county recently enacted an ordinance stating that anyone buying a home (or renting one in which the water service will be in their own name) built after 1993 MUST meet certain plumbing requirements before water service can be turned on?
The requirements are as follows:
Toilets - 1.6 GPF (Gallons Per Flush) maximum
Urinals - 1.0 GPF max
Showerheads - 2.5 GPM (Gallons Per Minute) max
Lavatory faucets - 2.0 GPM max
Kitchen faucets - 2.2 GPM max
Apparently the belief is that homeowners will fill their tubs to the desired level regardless of the GPM of the faucet, so there does not seem to be any restriction on tub faucets. Click this link to read more (and verify the information shown) - Dekalb County Toilet Retrofit Rebate
- If you have toilets in your home installed prior to 1993, you can apply for a rebate from Dekalb County when you replace them with new, low-flow toilets.
- Dekalb Water Certificate of Compliance
- This is the certificate of compliance required to satisfy the ordinance referenced above. This certificate must be completed and signed before new water service can be established.
