Pennsylvania requires lines, faucets, and connections to be cleaned every seven days.Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement(BLCE) enforces this regulation. This agency consist of Pa. State Police that are assigned to enforce LCB laws.The law requires that a record be kept of the cleanings, as well as the method used,(chemical, sponge, glass beads,etc.) The law states that steam or soda be used, but was written before the chemicals and methods that are used now were available.The state or local health dept. also monitor this during their yearly inspections.The LCB/BLCE are allowing the use of the electronic devices (BLM), but has not changed the law's wording. They are supposedly watching these devices for there effectiveness. Tapman (Phil Denenberg, Denenberg Tap Service)
