      @@ldenorio No due to the self draining feature. When you remove the adapter it drains a tiny bit of water but this is what clears the line to keep the frost free protection working perfectly every time It would be interesting for them to make a horizontal version though to make a retrofit install even easier.

      The problem with the too fancy ones, is the water is either on, or it’s not. So if you live in an area that freezes, you can’t just slightly open the spigot and get a small drip, you have to have water flowing out
      Also, it’s $100, so way too much money for something you can lose the adapter to, and not have running water.

    Yes very nice that you can access the back of your old faucet unlike 99.999999% of all applications. Cut the crap & tell it like it is! New construction fine. Retro fit (as you elude to) forget it unless you want to shed out on a boat load for cutting into walls, making up the plumbing fitting (9/10 copper & not PEX) making that connection, repairing, taping, floating & painting your wall inside.

      There is a problem, actually. Pipes freeze and burst, and you have this bit of pipe that's not insulated sticking out of your house because of your obsession with grass. So it can freeze, and explode your pipes, and cost you thousands. The actual solution is to remove it entirly, and stop having a grass based yard.

      Can also add an extension to the shutoff. They sometimes fit in the original hole. All this does is move the shut off about a foot into the house so it wont freeze. It will look exactly the same as before.

    For NEW home construction - remember to inform the plumber to install a loop flexible pipe inside the wall . REASON = if future repairs are required for Aquor Hydrant.
    A Loop pipe allows to slide the Aquor hydrant in and out , for inspection / repair or replacement.
    Saves the customer by not having to be home or open the front door. Having the ability to service an item without entering the house is a big selling point for home owners.

    The water dripping down the siding, every time you take the adaptor in or out, is going to rot everything below it. You can see the water on the wall. Some old things are still better. Try replacing the old style spigot with a frost proof style. If you lose or break the adaptor, you can't get any water. The plastic cover is going to fail eventually, the old brass and black metal style has proven performance. Pex is leeching toxic chemicals into your water, especially hot water. Manufacturers recommend, using cold water only for cooking. You can taste it. Ten years from now, we will be removing it. And I install it.
