Faulty Connection, Major Leak

This product was a nightmare for me. I purchased it for a DIY project, and within days, it started leaking in the wrong spot. The instructions were incomplete and confusing, so that wasn't much help either. The only good thing about this experience was that the tools and home improvement store I bought it from gave me a refund.

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Poor instructions, faulty connection

Turn left to turn on

The 12" WALL HYDRANT, 1/2" I received appears to be a fault. Every outside wall or fire hydrant I've ever seen is a right turn turn. Just not this one! Turn it to the left to turn it on. And I can't change the direction of this block because this block is built in a way that it can't be taken apart and put back together. If I could disassemble the block the block could be repaired. I could disassemble the block and throw it away as there is no way to remove the freeze drain valve.

Pros
  • Rough plumbing
Cons
  • There are cons

Quality you can see and feel at work before and after installation.

I have bought and installed 3 of these in the last 6 years and the oldest still works as well as the newest. I like the 1/4 turn function and smooth operation. My well water is of a very corrosive quality and this causes inferior silicones to fail within a few years, but I am happy to report that this does not happen with this product! However, there were two problems: First, this product seems difficult to find when entering simple search terms on Google or Revain. Don't ask me why Second…

Pros
  • Pipes, fittings and accessories
Cons
  • Some problems
