"In instances where detached living quarters art constructed in connection with a private home and upon the same lot, such quarters being used as family facilities and not for rental purposes, each aueh faoillty shall be treated as an additional room and the schedule rate applicable thereto shall be charged. "In the instance of a business house, where additional structures are erected purely for storage purposes and are without water connection, no additional charge shall be made."
