IMPORTANT: For optimum freeze protection, vacuum breaker should be at an angle to level ground. Freeze Protection • Water from wall hydrant will drain in a steady gentle stream for approximately 15-20 seconds after hydrant is turned off. • Water in buried ground hydrants will drain down and out the weep hole after water shutoff. Health Protection • In the event of back siphonage due to a drop in inlet pressure, the vacuum breaker will intake air through the ports to break the siphoning action. • Any water trying to make its way back to the potable water supply due to back siphonage or back pressure will be blocked at the point of the back flow preventer/ vacumm breaker and drain harmlessly to the ground through the air ports. WARNING! When using a hose with a self-closing nozzle, always relieve pressure by draining the hose upon water shutoff to activate the drainage of the hydrant.
