An apparatus for covering or sealing Storz-type outlets is shown and described. The apparatus includes an outer cap portion having a continuous sidewall, a connector portion for connecting the outer cap portion to the water supply assembly and a sealing cap portion rotatably coupled to the outer cap portion and located at least partially within a void defined by the continuous sidewall, the sealing cap portion including a pliable sealing portion for forming a seal about the water supply outlet. The connector portion includes a pair of lugs and a pair of ramped lug guides associated with an inner surface of the continuous sidewall. The pair of ramped lug guides are provided for receiving a pair of lugs of the water supply assembly. A nut portion extends from an outer face of outer cap portion for engagement by a tool such as a wrench or socket for rotating the outer cap portion about the water supply outlet.

A fire hydrant water leak and theft detection system is connected to a dry barrel fire hydrant. The detector is connected to the upper barrel portion of the fire hydrant below the nozzle assembly and includes a pair of electrodes. A signal is generated when water in the upper barrel portion closes an electrical circuit between the two electrodes due to the conductivity of the water between the electrodes. The detection system sends a signal to a network system upon detection of water in the barrel portion and relays to remote monitoring locations.

A remotely controlled hydrant system which may be quickly and efficiently connected to or disconnected from a hydrant to allow remote control of the hydrant by a remote controller such as a mobile phone. The remotely controlled hydrant system generally includes a frame which may be removably connected to a hydrant, such as a frost-free hydrant commonly used in agriculture. A pair of mount supports are removably secured against the shaft of the hydrant, such as via first and second connectors. An actuator is connected between the frame and the hydrant such that movement of the actuator in a first direction activates the hydrant and movement of the actuator in a second direction deactivates the hydrant. A control unit is adapted to receive activation or deactivation signals from a remote controller and direct operation of the actuator.

An anti-freeze faucet contains: a first pipe, a second pipe, a control holder, a closing member, a closing member, a controlling valve, and a resilient element. The first pipe includes a first through hole, an outlet, an inlet, a channel, and a fitting sleeve having a second through hole and an inner screwing section. The second pipe includes a vertical moving portion, a connecting portion, and an air conduit. The vertical moving portion is connected with a rotary knob and has an outer screwing section and an air orifice. The control holder includes a water aperture, a water stop ring, plural first vents, plural second vents, and a connection portion. The closing member is fitted between the control holder and the connecting portion. The controlling valve is connected with the coupling portion, and the resilient element is mounted on the coupling portion and pushes the controlling valve toward the inlet.

A method and system for remote estimation of hydrant water pressure at a hydrant located at an end of a branch pipe being branched of a main pipe, the method including detecting a valve open-close status of a stop valve arranged in the branch pipe and transmitting the valve open-close status wirelessly to an external data system, detecting a hydrant open-close status of the hydrant and transmitting the hydrant open-close status wirelessly to an external data system, detecting a branch water pressure of water in the branch pipe and transmitting the branch water pressure wirelessly to the external data system, and estimating the hydrant water pressure at the hydrant based on the valve open-close status, the hydrant open-close status and the branch water pressure.
