It replaces traditional brass wall hydrants with a non-corroding, lead-free assembly that automatically seals off and drains when closed—reducing freeze risk and simplifying winterizing. The V2+ also includes an ASSE-compliant vacuum breaker built into the faceplate, eliminating the need for add-on backflow devices in many jurisdictions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the V2+ keep water from freezing inside the faucet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe V2+ uses an automatic internal drain and a long 8-inch stem to locate the valve deeper inside insulated walls, so standing water does not remain in the exposed portion.
