Project Highlights: Handeeman New Build V2+ Matte Black Install in Arizona

Handeeman installed Aquor Water Systems V2+ House Hydrants in Matte Black on his new Arizona home, which he’s building himself!

Derek wanted both cold and hot water access, so he installed two of the Hydrants side by side.

 

 

In preparation for putting in the Hydrants, Derek installed wood blocking behind the stucco before the stucco was added to the home’s exterior.

There are 3 inches of foam within the walls, so it would be difficult to attach the Hydrants to the concrete without the woods blocks. We’re talking some LONG screws!

Derek added 90 degree PEX inlets to the backend of his Hydrants in order to connect his PEX-A plumbing and complete the installation.
