We use hose gates on the outside here. The hose gates like wall hydrants have male thread. Wall hydrants are not allowed in Phoenix so there shouldn't be any confusion. I just thought it ironic that the responders would try to connect to gate valve mistaking it for a FDC inlet.

One advantage to 4" storz connections is that the're used for supply lines.

I guess they were getting requests for F X F swivel adapters because some "FDC's had the wrong type inlet".

I can not find anything like this is NFPA 20. Thanks, John John August Denhardt, P.E.
