When a fire hydrant is installed, it begins to rust. The caps may rust so tight they cannot be removed in time. Valves and joints develop blistering and pitting corrosion to the point of becoming unusable. Hydrants in this condition can be very difficult to open or even contain parts so corroded that using them under pressure can be dangerous.

WHEN TO REPAIR?

When should you repair rather than replace it? More than ninety percent of the time, fire hydrants can be repaired rather than replaced, saving approximately 60-80% of the cost of a new hydrant. Many fire hydrant repairs can be completed in just a few hours. Typically, repairs may take 45 minutes to 3 hours, depending on the problem and the make and model.
