A nice freezeless garden connection (if the handle is down). Why would anyone leave it on and the hose connected?

 

[cosmo1]

Can you replace just the top, or do you have to dig the whole thing up?

Because they are spending 14 hours plus a day commuting to and executing their job.

What's wrong with a septic system? Not everyone lives in a place with a municipal sewer system.

It looks to me like the handle is up---that is on.

For those city slickers who don't know this is a frostless water spigot. The pipe (if installed correctly) is buried about six feet in the ground and would be connected in the basement of the house--below the frost line. If the handle is placed in the down position the water is off and will actually drain back down the pipe below the frost line. The hose should never be left hooked up to the spigot if freezing weather is predicted.

Thank you. I thought it was something for hillbilly water balloons.

I've seen many people pumping on a handle of one of those things thinking it was an old time pump well.
