Hose Bibs and Hydrants

Hose Bibs and Hydrants

Hose bibs and hydrants are fixtures used to provide access to water outdoors for watering gardens, washing vehicles or firefighting. Hose bibs, also known as outdoor faucets or spigots, can be attached to the exterior of buildings and have a threaded outlet where a garden hose can be connected. Hydrants, on the other hand, are larger, standalone fixtures that are primarily used for firefighting purposes. Hose bibs and hydrants play vital roles in providing water resources for outdoor activities and emergencies, respectively.
