Louisville, Kentucky Spec Fire Hydrants
It appears that Louisville, Kentucky requires that all fire hydrants put into service
be fire hydrants with two pumper or steamer connections. The city does not use fire
hydrants with the smaller hose nozzles. It appears that at one point in time, the
city only used the model fire hydrant manufactured by Vogt
Brothers Mfg. Co. Because the company no longer is in business, the city has
now employed fire hydrants from many different companies, including, but not limited
to : American Darling, Mueller Co.,
and US Pipe. Below the abundant model manufactured by Vogt
Bros is shown with a couple of the other commonly seen fire hydrants.
