[QUOTE="Daybreak, post: 182622, member: 1332"] Howdy, In colder area's, you want to still have water service. So the hydrant is called a frostproof, or no-freeze etc... It has different bury depths. The idea is to have it buried deep enough below the frost line. When you shut it off, the water actually drains out of the upper section of pipe. It drains thru a hole down at the bottom. mother nature keeps it warm enough down deep to not freeze. Below is a picture.
