Aquor House Hydrant V2+ Frost Free Outdoor Garden Faucet with Quick Connect and Anti-Siphon, 10 inch, Slate Gray Polymer

I have two of these for both hydrants on my house. I have had no issues or problems. The hydrants are durable and look very modern. I have had no issues with leaks or quality of the product. The connector is able to twist right in and make a good seal. I will be buying more of these for my new house!

I was installing a new spigot near a hot tub to provide quick access to water to fill the tub and clean around it. The area is fairly high traffic, with kids and pets always walking by, so a traditional hose bib was not only going to be unattractive but also be likely to be hit. The Aquor Hydrant v2 was a perfect solution. When nothing is attached, it is out of the way and attractive. I paired it with the stainless steel cover to add to the look, and I couldn't be happier.I did the install myself, purchasing the PEX inlet and the installation was a breeze. Older in-wall style hydrants required a bigger opening and took up more space in the wall, while being harder to use. The Aquor only needs two 1.5" holes above/below each other and the fit is great. Feels way more solid than any other spigot on my house. This was for a new spigot, but I am already planning on replacing the others with an Aquor.

Easy to install (despite it being installed by a plumber because I live in a condo, and it requires an insured company), also it's easy to use. It's truly frost-free (photo taken at -3˚C in BC, Canada). No leak (for plumbing PEX was used). Highly recommended. Will use it in any future project, it's worth the cost. The plumber got impressed by the quality of the material, packaging, and instructions - very clear, and easy to follow.

Probably one of the greatest inventions for a hose. Very high quality and easy install. No need to winterize hose bibs anymore and it’s such a clean look.

Saw the Aquor House Hydrant come to my design feed somehow on Houzz, or YouTube & researched it before purchasing. It’s interesting the design came from college students @ U of Wash! I love the Aquor’s sleek, low profile, unobtrusive look for a hose bib, and water performance. It’ll look great from my back patio deck, vs the old, ugly spigot. This is a great product and worth the install and product cost. The HH product is extremely sturdy, with a heavy, solid metal pipe & they give you stainless steel screws. It’s rated to last 20-30 yrs, per Matt Risinger of the Build Show’s video on the Aquor site. There’s a lot of marketing paperwork inside, along w a free straight connector. You should definitely buy the angled hose connector w the shut off ability, as the straight connector doesn’t have a shut off and shoots/streams quite a distance more than the angled hose. Made w a composite plastic (Delrin acetal rsin polymer), it’s crush proof to 200+ lbs (if run over by a car’s wheels). It’s mid Nov & freezing in MA @ night, and I love that the HH is frost free, and one less thing to winterize, but I’ll probably still turn off the water line in the fall. Purchased both 10” and 12”, but installed the 10”. The instructions should be clearer that if you’re in a cold climate, to choose the longer pipe so it’s further away from the cold outside wall & well inside the house. I have 2x6 construction, and an open basement, not closed up. Had a handyman install the mounting block with metal flashing on top & Aquor HH. I was lucky to find a terrific handyman/plumber from the Aquor website, under Installers, who did 25+ installs. Took 1.5 hrs, but the handyman also did some extra work to prevent an overly extended PEX from kinking & being pulled too far out by a plumber in the future. I looked at 3 different mounting block choices and the cedar siding will be replaced with James Hardie fiber cement siding, I went w/ a ¾” thick PVC mounting block; as didn’t want the flimsy vinyl, uninsulated one from the big box, orange store. I didn’t change the HH cover color yet, waiting for siding to be replaced before deciding between stainless, black or white. We will have white trim & windows, black doors, pale green siding. The extra right hole in the pictures was a plugged up hot water spigot, at one point, and won't be seen after the new siding's up. I spoke with 2 plumbers who didn’t think the HH was worth it, & didn’t like a separate hose connector that could be lost. I like the design, it adds to the house’s aesthetics & they are old school. The box comes with a straight hose connector, and they’ll give you another if you write an honest Amazon review. The other thing was I tried to find a solution from the Aquor engineers by contacting their Chat line. I wanted their help in figuring out how to tie the Aquor system with a 6 zone sprinkler system that requires a backflow preventer (Watts), and where the sprinkler water lines have to be blown out with compressed air every fall, thru a front of house spigot, on an exterior front wall. The whole system is super ugly in the front of my porch, and was too complicated for Aquor to figure out. Maybe they will have a solution in the future. However, they ghosted me, never emailed me back, nor did the Chat line person after I emailed her twice. They should’ve simply said they don’t have a solution right now.
