PRIER P-754 provides a year round source of tempered water to areas that are subject to freezing temperatures. The hydrant valve is connected to the supply piping in the heated portion of the structure, eliminating the possibility of freezing. To assure freeze protection, the hydrant will drain even with the hose attached and under pressure.
The integral vacuum breaker/backflow preventer provides protection against cross-contamination with the potable water system, utilizing a double check valve to prevent back pressure and a vacuum breaker to vent in the case of upstream pressure drop. A removable operating key is provided to prevent unauthorized usage of the hydrant. No special installation tools are required.
