With the valve of each outlet operating independently, this type of hydrant has an advantage over its dry barrel counterpart due to easy access to the aboveground mechanical parts for maintenance and adjustments, which of course turns out to be more economical.
Dry barrel hydrants are used mostly in cold-weather regions. They are called dry barrels because there is no water above ground, which prevents the hydrant from freezing and breaking. Wet barrel hydrants are filled with water all the way to the top of the head.
Dry-barrel hydrants should always be opened fully because the drain mechanism operates with the main valve. A partially opened hydrant can cause water to be forced out through the drains and cause erosion around the base of the hydrant.
