How To Install Aquor House Hydrant V1+

In this video, we walk through how to install an Aquor Water Systems House Hydrant V1+ on a remodel project in Seattle, Washington. The home was plumbed with 3/4 copper and PEX, with SharkBite fittings throughout, so we kept things consistent and used SharkBite and PEX to connect the Aquor House Hydrant to the existing plumbing.

A rarely clear and thorough video. Thx.

[@rcastillog1]

I just saw you did at the end of the video . Thanks

[@1ElectricKing]

Cool thanks now i can put mine in this weekend

[@BrentLagerman]

any videos showing how you do this with brick houses or cement block?

[@MaggioRacinginc]

Is there an installation video to be installed on brick and to copper instead of pex?

[@AquorWaterSystems]

Thanks for the suggestions, we'll try to make one soon!

[@macutan]

Thank you for the video. Do you recommend any particular 1-1/2in hole saw bit for drilling through the cinder block wall (trying to install the V2+ version)

[@AquorWaterSystems]

Just make sure to choose a bit intended for masonry - no specific brands that we recommend.

[@Tossle]

will the reduction have an effect on water pressure?

[@AquorWaterSystems]

It may have reduced the flow a bit, but not anything noticeable.

[@Simplicity33]

Would this system work on a gravity water system instead of pressurized water from a house?

[@AquorWaterSystems]

Yes, there is a reset spring in the hydrant that will close the valve even without pressure. You'll want to remove the check valve from the hose connector to allow for the most flow.

[@tadadamski9001]

The original hose bib was 3/4". Don't like that you stepped it down to 1/2".

[@rcastillog1]

Could you add the complete list of materials, including the type of tools you used?

[@Christophewildfire]

La unua

[@1ElectricKing]

Why didn't you use a 90° shark bite?

[@AquorWaterSystems]

Either option would work great here. The ProPEX fittings are lower in cost, but require the tool.

[@reggiemojica1579]

What does a job like this cost roughly?

[@AquorWaterSystems]

Labor rates vary a lot by plumber and region, but we'd estimate about 45 min to 1.5 hours in service time.

[@angelcastro1974]

In and out in 30 to 45 minutes tops

[@markwebber9679]

I’d have to cut holes in my living room and master bedroom wall to install this faucet. Additional expense. Ugh

[@angelcastro1974]

You don’t need to use pex pipe you can connect to copper all they you to do is waste more money ugh

[@AquorWaterSystems]

Home was a mix of copper + PEX from a remodel. Either would work great.
