In Reply to: RE: fire hydrant may be too low in that hole to even use... posted by Elizabeth on March 31, 2014 at 08:18:51
Fortunately there may be a fix if it's a standard American made hydrant. Riser kits are available to bring that hydrant up closer to grade. Or at least to a point where it's serviceable. With that said, it's MUCH easier to set the hydrant at the right grade in the first place. Should have been corrected before they poured the concrete.
Follow Ups:
Remove the grate, route the hose down & back to the plug. Or, more properly, route the hose through the windows of the ubiquitous BMW 8 series or Mercedes, down through the grate, and onto the plug. :)
And leave a foot of the hydrant and the surrounding "pit" there for a massive tripping/falling hazard? If that's the case, the hydrant should be set below grade in a concrete vault of some ilk and covered with a similar diamond plate.
