As Easy as 1, 2, 3

1: Remove Existing Inlet

Remove existing inlet by unscrewing counterclockwise. Ensure the O-ring on the Hydrant body is properly seated.

Note: DO NOT use Teflon tape on hydrant body threads. This may cause leaks. Only use Teflon tape on plumbing connection (fitting) threads.

2: Hand Tighten New Inlet

Hand tighten new inlet onto Hydrant body by threading clockwise. For elbow inlets, rotate counterclockwise until the inlet is positioned in the correct direction for installation. The O-ring will keep a watertight seal up to 360° from full lock, up to 250 PSI.

3: Connect to Plumbing

Connect to plumbing, then check for leaks and test Hydrant operation.

For PEX joints, wait 10 minutes for it to shrink down and set before turning on the water.

If possible, use a PEX expansion loop for easy plumbing maintenance down the road.

This allowed for easy in wall connection.

Easy Peazy PEX Squeezy

As simple as attaching to the Aquor outdoor spigot, attach the PEX water line, and crimp the clamp. No more leaks. No more excessive concerns about water line freezing due to the excess water coming out after detaching the hose. Life is good.

Choose the right connection for your PEX—PEX B uses Crimp style

Accidentally ordered the expansion version which can only be used with PEX A. Reordered the Crimp style needed for PEX B and everything is good

PEX Elbow

Unable to use copper pipe directly into the hydrant. Made the installation very easy, and no leaks!

Gotta Get It

Aquor’s ultralight hose is worth every cent. Compared to the conventional rubber hose, Aquor hoses are easier to maneuver, clean, and coil. These hoses aren’t intended for industrial use, but for the homeowner it’s a must have.

Great product and service

We installed three Hydrants V2s and one Hot+Cold Hydrant on our new build home and have been extremely pleased with them for the year we've been in our home. Our builder and his plumber were unfamiliar with the products but got them installed. I believe he's started recommending them to new home build customers after his experience with ours.

I ran into an issue with out Hot+Cold Hydrant and the Aquor custom service team jumped into action and had me sorted out with repair parts quickly. Highly recommend their products and I think the new hose reel is in our future ...

Great product

I have arthritis in my wrists and had trouble with the original connector. Called customer service and they immediately sent me the angled connector. Product works great and their Customer Service A+. Would (and have) recommend !!

hose nozzle

If you buy any of the hoses, the nozzle is a seperate purchase but I must buy for the product. The only down fall is there is not a setting for a light spray on plants.

The truly better spigot option!

Excellent product, easy install. I’m super impressed with the build quality and the simplicity of the design. I would definitely recommend this to anyone picking out fixtures. I will be purchasing more as my existing spigots need replaced.
