A freezeless wall hydrant for delivery of hot or cold water from a single
discharge conduit has first and second fluid inlet pipes in parallel
spaced relation. The pipes have forward and rearward ends and are
connected respectively to sources of hot and cold pressurized water. A
laterally extending fluid conduit member connects the forward ends of the
first and second fluid inlet pipes and is in communication therewith. A
fluid closure valve is located in the rearward ends of each of the first
and second fluid pipes. A check valve is in each of the pipes forwardly
of the fluid closure valves and is capable of permitting fluid flow in
the pipes in a direction from the closure valve, but prevents fluid flow
towards the closure valves. A valve rod having forward and rearward ends
rotatably extends through the laterally extending fluid conduit and
through the forward ends of the first and second inlet pipes and has one
end operatively connected to the check valves in the rearward ends of the
fluid inlet pipes. A handle is located on a protruding forward end of the
valve rods to permit the manual movement of the rods to open or close the
fluid closure valves. A fluid exit conduit has a rearward end in
communication with the laterally extending fluid conduit and extends
forwardly and downwardly and terminates in a hose threaded portion. A
check valve is located in the fluid exit conduit to prevent fluid flow
therein only towards the forward end of the fluid exit conduit.
