FREEZE RESISTANT WALL HYDRANT
A freeze resistant wall hydrant including an outdoor housing joined to the outer end of an outlet tube for securing to a building and a fitting joined to the inner end of the outlet tube for coupling to a water supply. The fitting includes a fluid closure valve having a valve part movable between first and second positions for closing and opening the valve. A stem extends through the outlet tube and has an outer end coupled to a handle of the outdoor housing and an inner end coupled to the valve part. The handle moves the valve part to close and open the valve. The outlet tube and the stem can each be made from a cross-linked polyethylene or flexible plastic to facilitate installation of the wall hydrant. Methods for using or resizing the wall hydrant are provided.
