Abstract

See full text

The wall hydrant is automatically draining, providing freeze resistant, and includes protections against contamination of a building's potable water supply from the backflow of water in an attached hose. In particular, a dual check hose connection backflow preventer provides protection against back pressure from a hose fill of water which is elevated 10 feet. In addition, protection is provided from back siphonage due to a reduction of pressure in the potable water system within the building. Finally, a biased open atmospheric vent is located between the two independent checks to further assure the protection against backflow from the hose to the potable water system.
