A one way valve cartridge for a flow assembly includes a housing having an axial aperture formed therein. A leading ring is coupled to the housing. A piston is disposed in the housing and is in sliding relationship with the leading ring. The piston is configured to reciprocate between a closed position to seal the axial aperture and an open position to permit a flow of fluid through the axial aperture. A spring urges the piston into the closed position to seal with the housing.

A fully serviceable frost proof mixing hydrant for supplying water at various temperatures to the exterior of a building. The mixing hydrant includes hot and cold water inlets and a chamber in which the water is mixed based on the position of a cammed wheel acting on a pair of poppets. These poppets act as temperature regulators and check valves to prevent cross-flow leakage and/or contamination. The mixing hydrant includes an inside tube or flow sleeve for delivery of water to an outside body tube in communication with a spout on the head of the hydrant. The flow from the inside tube to the outside body tube reduces turbulence and provides a better outlet flow from the spout. Flow control and temperature control are independent allowing the user to set the flow as desired then adjust the temperature as desired without affecting the flow.

A turbulence reducer may be integrated in the vacuum breaker prevents leakage during use of the hydrant by reducing turbulence acting on the vacuum breaker poppet. Additionally, the user is able to service all aspects of the hydrant from outside the building
