Fire
hydrants have been used in fire protection for over 100 years. AWWA C502
was developed in 1913 as a standard for the manufacture and use of dry
barrel hydrants. Kennedy has established itself as a leader in the industry
with manufacturing experience dating back to 1905. Many of the early hydrants
are in use today.
Kennedy's most recent design is the Guardian. Based on a simple design,
it is easy to install, maintain and repair. The Guardian sets a standard
for quality in the industry and meets or exceeds all requirements for AWWA
C502 latest revision, and is UL listed and FM approved.
