I have a freeze prove hydrant that shuts off great but when turned on water squirts out the top. Is there a rubber ring or something that holds the water in the pipe ?

I would assume that the hydrant would have a bonnet nut around the stem. Tighten about 1/2 turn. I am assuming that by "out the top" you mean around the stem.

Hi guys...

Actually, I'm going to bet that Howabout7 is talking about a leaking VACUUM BREAKER on the top of the anti.-freeze faucet (see images).

If you are talking about a vacuum breaker then you could try to find an exact match to the faucet and see if the vacuum breaker can be removed, or if you give a quick call to the manufacturer they can tell you if they sell a vacuum breaker repair kit.

If it gets to be a real hassle finding a replacement part then it may be easier just to replace the entire unit... up to you.

Good luck!

You could be right Mark. Thought I post a pic of a hydrant so Howabout7 could confirm
