House Hydrant is a refreshingly modern alternative to the leaky old outdoor faucet
Ditch your dripping, corroded, or frost-damaged spigot for this entirely new take on getting water to your yard. Aquor’s House Hydrant is a recessed, stainless-steel exterior water valve that automatically opens when you twist in the included heavy-duty hose connector. The spring-loaded, double-o-ring valve is much less prone to wear than a typical rotating water valve, so it should outlast any conventional faucet by a big margin. When not in use, the House Hydrant hides under a hinged cover, and your garden hose can be stowed neatly out of sight. There’s also a complementary hose adapter kit if you want all of your watering accessories to be equally hassle-free.
