One duplex equals 2 living units. The standards for design and construction shall be considered minimum standards for new facilities and the minimum standards to which existing facilities shall be upgraded when improvements are undertaken at those facilities except for systems where all of the living units are owned by a single owner and the owner provides information indicating that less than 25 year-round residents will be served. These standards may be imposed on a case-by-case basis to existing facilities when the department determines that a health risk exists due to the water system.
