Did you know you can swap out the standard inlet that comes with your hydrant? Perhaps you want to connect to PEX, and/or attach a 90° elbow.
First, twist off the included 1/2” NPT Straight Inlet from the back of the hydrant body.
Then, attach your preferred Aquor inlet.
Our elbow inlets shorten the overall hydrant length by 1/2 inch, perfect for tight spaces and in-wall plumbing. This type of inlet can be positioned in any direction due to a unique O-ring seal.
Tighten fully, then back off to the desired placement (up to 360°, 1 rotation). Pretty nifty!
Excellent product of high quality construction, a modern upgrade to the house exterior. One installed, one more to go in the spring! Will be shopping here again for the mixer setup.
Living in MInnesota I have encountered many issues with my spigots. This last year or two both of them have become a game to try to turn the water on without being drenched from the leaked spraying water coming at you. I came across these. I believe these will be the solution I'm looking for. Of course I chose the wrong wknd (Below 0 not counting wind chill) to install. I felt, even below zero, that the installation process couldn't have been easier. Granted, yes I did make another two or three trips to Home Depot, but if I had experience I felt it would have taken maybe 20-30 minutes. It's January here tomorrow so I have not tried the hydrants yet, however I can see the good quality and smart design that I am pretty sure I'm not going to experience any issues with this product. Also kind of saddened that I didn't think of this product myself. Genius!
