A nozzle cap spacer for a hydrant nozzle cap includes a spacer body defining an outer body edge, the spacer body defining a spacer body thickness; and a resilient first spacer spring arm extending from the outer body edge and biased away from the spacer body in an extended orientation, wherein the first spacer spring arm defines a first spring arm thickness; wherein the first spring arm thickness of the first spacer spring arm is equal to the spacer body thickness of the spacer body.

A hydrant apparatus may be employed to monitor a water distribution system, and may include a sensor, a processor, and a local clock source. The apparatus may wake from a low power mode to a sensing mode, receive the sensor data, associate the sensor data with a first local clock time, and return the apparatus to the low power mode from the sensing mode. The apparatus may subsequently wake to an operational mode, determine a second local clock time subsequent to the first local clock time, associate an external clock time with the second local clock time, determine an offset for the received sensor data based on the first local clock time and the association between the second local clock time and the external clock time, and transmit the sensor data and the offset to an external monitoring system.

A multi-port transition tee drain valve includes multiple ports that are positioned generally perpendicular to the body of the fitting that includes a drain valve. The drain valve includes a drain port positioned next to a valve member which can be opened to permit the draining of the multi-port transition tee drain valve and surrounding components through the drain port. The fittings on the ports and the fittings on the end(s) of the drain body can be different to permit the transition of one type or size of tubing/piping to another.

A freezeless outdoor shower assembly that is self-draining to prevent freezing and damage to the assembly when the assembly is exposed to cold and freezing weather. The assembly includes a riser coupled to a self-draining riser coupler assembly which drains water from the assembly when water from a water source it turned off. Preferably the freezeless outdoor shower assembled is coupled to an outdoor freezeless hydrant providing hot and cold water.

Example aspects of a nozzle cap spacer for a hydrant nozzle cap, a spaced nozzle cap assembly, and a method for adjusting a rotational indexing of a nozzle cap are disclosed. The nozzle cap spacer for a hydrant nozzle cap can comprise a spacer body defining an outer body edge; and a resilient first spacer spring arm extending from the outer body edge, wherein the first spacer spring arm is biased away from the spacer body in an extended orientation.

The present invention relates to a connector (100) for a water system. The connector comprises an inlet connector (105), a connector body and an outlet connector (120) arranged in sequence. The connector body is open-sided so as to form a tundish having an open air gap between the inlet and outlet connectors (105, 120), through which water can fall in use. The connector (100) further comprises a sensor for detecting the presence of water within the connector body.

A fire hydrant drain includes an elongated, hollow body having a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion. The first portion is configured to protrude a first length radially through an outer wall of a fire hydrant. The second portion is continuous with and between the first portion and the third portion. The second portion includes a first bend having a first curvature degree and a first curvature direction, and a second bend having a second curvature degree and a second curvature direction. The first curvature degree is larger than the second curvature degree, and a direction of the first curvature is opposite a direction of the second curvature. The first bend is between the first portion and the second bend. The third portion extends a second length, and an angle between the first length and the third length is less than 90 degrees.
