Key Operated Wall Hydrants for irrigation system winterization
Sizes: 34" - 1" (20 25mm)
Series TWS Key Operated Wall Hydrants have been specifically designed to provide outside access to a building water supply for start-up, winterizing, and servicing of irrigation sprinkler systems. The TWS is located outside of the home reducing the time spent on service calls. There is no need to locate the inside shutoff valve or the drain connection. Deploying the TWS wall hydrant enables the irrigation contractor to winterize an irrigation system at anytime thereby protecting the contractors warranty and the homeowners investment. When used in conjunction with the Watts Series 800 Pressure Vacuum Breaker or either a Series 009 or 909 Reduced Pressure Zone Backflow Preventer, the installing contractor provides affordable freeze protection for both the irrigation system and the backflow preventer.
