(Figure 4) GROUNDLEVELBURYDEPTH 27”FROST LINEFigure 11.) 2.)Hydrant canister must be placed below existing frost line. Figure15.)No ground preparation is required for the Freeze Flow Sanitary Yard Hydrant; therefore it can be placed in any soil condition. Hydrant canister is stainless steel and pipes are all galvanized steel, which meet ASTM specs.4.) Attach hydrant to existing supply line using an approved thread sealant.3.) Flush supply lines BEFORE installing hydrant. It is still the responsibility of the installer to know his/her soil condition and to ensure that proper corrosion protection is administered to the hydrant. The application of paint or rubber tape may be needed to protect against some soil conditions.BEFORE back ?lling with soil, perform a Shut O? Valve Leak Check to make sure shut o? valve does not leak due to debris in supply line or damaged o-ring. A leaking seat can cause hydrant to ?ll with water and possibly freeze. INSTALLATIONFreeze Flow hydrants are designed for heavy-duty commercial use where safe potablewater is needed. This hydrant drains into the canister below the frost line to preventfreeze ups and cross contamination with the soil bacteriaSanitary Yard HydrantInstallation InstructionsHOEPTNER PERFECTED PRODUCTS7796 Oak Spring Circle, Gilroy, CA 95020 * Ph 408-847-7615 / Fax 408-847-0675 work@garlic.com * www.freeze?ow.comHoeptner Products
