Prepare for Winter with Frostproof Hydrants and Hose Bibs – Why We Recommend Aquor Hose Faucets


🌨️❄️ Winter is just around the corner, and at McGinnis Plumbing, we want to ensure that your outdoor faucets can withstand the frosty temperatures. As the temperature drops, the risk of frozen pipes and damaged outdoor faucets increases. That’s why we highly recommend considering frostproof hydrants and hose bibs, with a special nod to the exceptional Aquor hose faucets.

🚰 Aquor Hose Faucets: A Winter-Ready Solution

✅ Performance: Aquor hose faucets are designed to perform exceptionally well, ensuring a reliable water source even in freezing conditions. Their innovative design prevents water from sitting in the faucet, reducing the risk of freezing.

✅ Durability: Crafted with high-quality materials, Aquor faucets are built to withstand the harshest weather conditions. Their robust construction ensures longevity, providing you with a durable outdoor faucet for years to come.

✅ Aesthetic Appeal: Beyond their functionality, Aquor hose faucets are aesthetically pleasing. They seamlessly blend into your outdoor space, adding a touch of sophistication while serving a crucial purpose.

❄️ Why Frostproof Matters:

Traditional outdoor faucets can be susceptible to freezing, leading to burst pipes and costly repairs. Frostproof hydrants and hose bibs are specifically designed to prevent freezing by placing the valve’s water shutoff point inside the heated portion of your home.

🔍 Types of Outdoor Faucets:

  1. Traditional Faucets: Standard outdoor faucets are vulnerable to freezing because they don’t extend into the warm interior of your home. These are at a higher risk of damage during winter.

  2. Frostproof Hydrants: Designed to prevent freezing, frostproof hydrants have the shut-off valve located below the frost line, ensuring that water drains out of the faucet, minimizing the risk of freezing.

  3. Aquor Hose Faucets: A standout choice for both performance and aesthetics, Aquor hose faucets combine functionality with a sleek design, making them an excellent addition to any outdoor space.

     We especially like Aquor because they eliminate the possibility of the hose fusing onto the faucet connection like a standard one can. Often times a hose will be left connected to the faucet over the winter and will then become frozen on which often times makes necessary to cut the hose, making it trash, and having to replace the faucet from inside the home. This design eliminates that possibility.
