a. If using a vacuum breaker, install the union outlet of the FPHB-1

Hydrant in the vertical up position (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2)

b. If using a Reduced Pressure Assembly, install the union outlet of the

FPHB-1 Hydrant in the vertical up orientation (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 3).

c. If using a Double Check Assembly in meter box (see Fig. 4 and Fig.

5), install the union outlet in the vertical down position.
