The Merrill™ AnyFlow® Yard Hydrant gives year-round water service; it drains below the frostline when shut off. The AnyFlow® hydrant has had only a few improvements since 1949. These improvements, the exclusive features and benefits and the time-proven basic design, is why we believe the AnyFlow® is the best yard hydrant manufactured by anyone in the world.

  • Features
  • Product Videos
  • Lever control operates by cam principle and provides variable flow from trickle to full force
  • Draw straps are made of 1040 hot rolled steel which is much harder (Brinell 175/200) and stronger, greatly reduces wear of straps and eliminates side pull on operating rod
  • Stainless steel operating rod is ground and polished and will not cut out packing and packing nut, like brass rod used by other companies, best material for longest operating life
  • Heavy duty hose adapter threaded for standard 3/4 in hose coupling
  • Extra thick walled head casting greatly reduces breakage and insures longer life
  • Pivot connector with two nuts provides simple positive adjustment and eliminates unreliable set screws
  • No exposed threads on galvanized rod and threads on galvanized pipe are coated with bitumastic to prevent rusting and prolong life of hydrant
  • Extra thick walled valve body to insure longer life and trouble free service
  • Patented plunger arrangement ensures even flow from trickle to full force, closes drain at any flow rate and opens drain in off position to prevent freezing
  • Krayton G cup seals provides a much longer life than leather, close tolerance uniformity, unaffected by chemicals and passed a 1 million cycle test
  • 3/8L beveled bibb washer made of SBR compound with 90 durometer hardness, assures positive shut-off and longer life than soft one piece plunger
  • Stainless steel spring takes up slack of normal wear and eliminates numerous adjustments of hydrant head linkage
  • Swivel parts permit withdrawal of moving parts without digging up hydrant, nothing in head assembly to disconnect or adjust when removing, simply unscrew entire head assembly from galvanized pipe and pull up valve stem with plunger for inspection
