Aquor is a better outdoor faucet.
In 2014 we reimagined the outdoor faucet and created the Aquor House Hydrant. Aquor hydrants save you time and water with easy, quick-connections that provide instant water access.
Aquor hydrants are unique because we use 100% 316L stainless steel, which provides better freeze protection than brass. Our hydrants seal using water pressure, eliminating typical excess wear and tear.

Ease of use was a top priority when designing our system. Our hydrants are always pressurized—all you need to do is plug in your connector for instant water access.
1) Before connecting, attach the hose connector to your garden hose. For convenience, add a connector to every hose you use and leave connected.
2) Connect with a simple push and twist. Align the 3 grooves on the connector with the nibs on the hydrant. Gently push in, then turn clockwise to connect. This opens the valve and water flow starts instantly.
3) Disconnect to drain and winterize your Aquor hydrant. Simultaneously push in the connector and turn counterclockwise. Your hydrant will drain and winterize automatically. We recommend storing your connector and hose out of the elements.
It’s best to unplug your connector from the hydrant after use during the colder months. This ensures your hydrant drains properly and doesn’t leave any residual water behind in your pipes that may freeze. Make sure to depressurize your hose after each use.
Good question! The main difference between our House Hydrant V1+ and our House Hydrant V2+ is the location of the vacuum breaker and the size of the entry hole.
Vacuum breakers help prevent the backflow of dirty water into your home's water supply, which is why they are required in the United States for new construction. Learn more about vacuum breakers.
On the House Hydrant V1+, the vacuum breaker is located within the connector. While on the House Hydrant V2+, the vacuum breaker is built into the hydrant faceplate. Both Hydrants are 1019 ASSE certified, meaning they are safe for new construction within the United States.
We recommend the V1+ Hydrant for retrofit installations since its circular entry hole makes it easier to swap in for an existing hose bib.
The V2+ Hydrant was designed for new construction and has an oval entry hole.
Yes! Aquor hydrants are precision-cast from 316L stainless steel, making them 7x better at insulating than brass. Our hydrants automatically seal, drain, and winterize upon disconnection, so you never have to worry about freezing or bursting pipes again! Throw away that ugly old foam cover and relax when it gets cold outside.

No, the hose connector acts as a tamper-resistant “key.” You can only access water with an Aquor hose connector.
Unlike traditional hand-tightened assemblies, Aquor hydrants seal using water pressure. When the connector is unplugged, the valve closes in the same direction as the water flow, creating an ultra-reliable seal.
Our connectors are built to last, with O-rings tested for 150,000+ cycles of use and crush-resistant acetal resin. We recommend leaving your hose connector attached to your hose, just be sure to depressurize your hose.
We offer a variety of connectors in different colors.
A vacuum breaker prevents the backflow of dirty water into your home's water supply. They are required for all frost-free hose bibs in the United States per ASSE code 1019. Read more about vacuum breakers.
Do you need a vacuum breaker on your home? Plumbing codes vary, so check your local codes. If you're retrofitting or remodeling, you might not be required to have one. Most new construction homes require vacuum breakers.
Another thing to consider is your risk level. If you're filling buckets with chemicals, you'll want backflow protection. If you're using a spray nozzle or only using potable water, there's not much risk of contamination.
Both our House Hydrant V1+ and V2+ kits meet plumbing code requirements for vacuum breaker protection, as well as our Comfort Grip VB Hose Connector, Vacuum Breaker Hose Connector, and Wide Grip VB Hose Connector.

You can absolutely install Aquor yourself! It is a relatively simple DIY project, you just need access to your plumbing.
The installation process is very similar to that of a standard brass hose bib. Although, the exact process will depend on your home’s siding and plumbing. The House Hydrant has a universal 1/2” NPT rear inlet, so nearly any type of plumbing adapter can be fitted. We offer additional inlets and mounting solutions to ease the installation process. In order to achieve maximum freeze protection, install your House Hydrant into an insulated wall.
For an easy installation, you can find install guides and videos on our product pages and our YouTube channel. additional installation tips on our blog.

At Aquor, we manufacture products that are built to last. We use 316L stainless steel, Delrin® acetal resin, and Viton® O-rings.
316L Marine-Grade Stainless Steel
Aquor uses 100% marine-grade stainless steel because it provides incredible freeze protection, extreme corrosion-resistance, durability, has a long lifespan, and is 100% lead-free. Stainless steel is also one of the most sustainable building materials—it lasts decades, is 100% recyclable, and does not produce toxic byproducts during manufacturing. Stainless steel is safe for the environment, manufacturers, and consumers.
Read more about what makes stainless steel so great.
Delrin® Acetal Resin
Delrin®, also known as acetal resin, is an engineered thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high wear resistance. We use acetal resin to manufacture our Aquor connectors, which can withstand 200+ lbs of lateral force, so they won’t break if you tug on them. They are also wear resistant and UV protected.
Read more about the durability of Delrin®.
Viton® O-Rings
Viton® O-rings have proved to be a dependable seal for decades. They are extremely durable, have a wide temperature range of use, and are resistant to aging. We’ve tested the O-rings on our products to withstand 150,000+ cycles of use.
In order to have backflow protection you’ll need a backflow prevention device. Backflow prevention devices are used to prevent the backflow of dirty water into your home’s water supply, ensuring that water only flows in one direction.
Vacuum breakers and check valves are both examples of backflow prevention devices that are built into Aquor products. Read more about vacuum breakers.
The Comfort Grip VB Hose Connector, Vacuum Breaker Hose Connector, Wide Grip VB Hose Connector, and the House Hydrant V2+ all have a built-in vacuum breaker.
The Angled Hose Connector and Straight Hose Connector have built-in check valves.
Do you need a vacuum breaker on your home? Plumbing codes vary, so check your local codes. If you're retrofitting or remodeling, you might not be required to have one. Most new construction homes require vacuum breakers.
It depends on where you will be installing your hydrant.
We have hydrants for every situation where you might need water access. Take our Product Finder quiz to find your perfect hydrant.
Our Hydrants are consistent with industry standard sizing. In order to properly size your Hydrant, you will need to know your type of siding and depth of framing. Keep in mind, in order to provide the best freeze protection, the back end of your hydrant will need to be installed in a heated or insulated space.
For a little more guidance, take a look at our blog post about How to Choose the Correct Outdoor Faucet Size or take our Stem Length Quiz for a personalized recommendation.

Aquor Hose Connectors are made of military-grade, crush-resistant Delrin® acetal resin and Viton® O-rings tested for 150,000+ cycles of use.
We recommend pairing our vacuum breaker connectors with the House Hydrant V1+ for code approved backflow protection and a connector without a vacuum breaker for all other hydrants. The removable faucet connector works best for incoming water with the RV City Water Inlet, since it doesn’t have a check valve.
Read the full Connector Product Overview here.
Vacuum breakers work as backflow preventers or anti-siphons to prevent contaminated water from flowing back into your home.
Whether or not you need a vacuum breaker will depend on your local municipality.

All our hydrant kits include everything you need to use your new hydrant. For an even easier installation, our Stem Length Quiz may suggest an additional inlet and/or mounting solution.
Some tools will be required for installation—these tools will vary depending on the plumbing connection.
Aquor can be installed anywhere you need quick and easy water access.
Take our Product Finder Quiz to discover which Hydrant is best for you.
Some of them!
If you are looking for a hydrant to install vertically, try our Universal Hydrant.
Our Ground Hydrant systems are also intended to be installed vertically and have an additional feature that drains the system to prevent freezing.
We advise that you keep your House Hydrants mounted horizontally in walls, especially the House Hydrant V2+.
If you want to use a hydrant as an in-fill valve for water, we recommend using our RV City Water Inlet.
Yup! Check out our Pro Installer Network for a list of our recommended plumbers.
We don’t recommend installing a hydrant without a cover.
The wedge on the cover provides a 5° incline of the stem to ensure proper drainage and winterization. Without the cover, your hydrant won’t drain properly.
Installing your hydrant with the cover will also help keep out dirt and debris.
For a more detailed guide, take a look at our blog post.
For more cover options, please visit this page.
Unlike a traditional spigot, Aquor House Hydrants use water pressure to seal and keep their valve closed. The elimination of a standard rotating valve prevents excess wear and tear, resulting in a longer lasting hydrant that doesn't need additional maintenance.
Should you ever need to service your hydrant, it can be done through the back inlet. We recommend installing your House Hydrant with a loop of PEX tubing attached to the rear inlet when possible. This will allow you to easily access and service the back inlet.
We don’t recommend leaving your connector plugged into your hydrant year round.
If you leave your connector plugged into your hydrant, the hydrant won’t be able to drain and winterize properly, which will most likely result in a broken connector.
It’s best to unplug your connector from the hydrant after use and depressurize your hose, especially during the colder months. This ensures your hydrant drains properly and doesn’t leave any residual water behind in your pipes that may freeze. You can, however, leave your connector attached to your garden hose.
While we don’t recommend staying connected to your hydrant year round, we do recommend that you keep your connector attached to your garden hose to avoid misplacing it. However, accidents happen! In the off chance that you do lose a connector we have several available for purchase on our website.
Yes! We have vacuum breaker replacements for our V2+ House Hydrant, stem replacements, hydrant screw replacements and O-ring replacements available.

We apologize for any inconvenience and will work with you to come up with a solution.
The fastest way to fix a leak is to contact us (800)458-1749 to speak with an Aquor representative. In the meantime, try checking the below.
Are you dealing with a leak from the connection between your hydrant and the plumbing?
Are you dealing with a leak when engaging your connector with the hydrant?
Are you getting a leak when the hydrant is not engaged?

This should be an easy fix!
The one way check valve in your connector is jammed. Use a pen or similar object to take the object and push down from the O-ring side of the connector until you can get some movement from the check valve.
If you can't get the valve to move please give us a call (800)458-1749. Our customer service hours are Monday - Friday from 9 AM - 4 PM PST. You can also email us contact@aquorwatersystems.com, or chat with us below, and we will be happy to assist you.
A little bit of drainage is normal when you disconnect and no cause for concern.
If your hydrant has a persistent drip or leak, first check your connector to make sure both o-rings are intact with no tears or obvious stretching.
If your connector is in proper shape, identify when the hydrant is leaking. If it is leaking when it is connected, this is commonly an issue with the connector or the vacuum breaker (on V2+ Models).
If the hydrant is leaking when disconnected, this is most likely an issue with debris being stuck or an issue with the operating rod. Cycle the hydrant by plugging it in and unplugging it to dislodge any debris or hard water buildup.
If the leak persists, give us a call (800)458-1749, email contact@aquorwatersystems.com, or chat with us below, and we will be happy to assist you. Our customer service hours are Monday - Friday from 9 AM - 4 PM PST.

Works great and high quality
Loving this product. Works great and high quality.
I have watched several videos on the Aquor products and looking forward to installing and using on my new build.
The pieces are made with the same high quality as the hydrant. Wish they were an option rather than an additional charge.
