Description 

The American Dry Barrel Hydrants provide a connection point for firefighters to tap into a water supply. When the hydrant is not in use, water is drained (or can be pumped) from the barrel. A main valve located in the base allows for the hydrant to be pressurized or drained. Upon opening the main valve, the barrel is pressurized. Upon closing the main valve, the barrel is drained.
