✌️ Peace, love, and water-saving vibes from @tristateseminar 2026 in Las Vegas! 🌼
Cruise on over to the Hydrant Guard booth (3:30 - 6:30pm) and hang with our crew. Get eyes on our far-out water-saving check valves and get the inside scoop on what's groovin' in the future of HG.
Can you believe it's been 250 years?! 🇺🇸
In fact, the first fire hydrant appeared in 1801, only 25 years after Independence. Like the country, hydrants have only gotten better with time.
Happy 4th of July from the Hydrant Guard team!

With a record number of new Hydrant Guard installs, 2025 goes down as our best year yet.
Across diverse geographies in the Western States and Hawaii, we're proud to be helping wet-barrel districts save water and improve service quality for their communities.
From parking-lot to water-plant: beneath a lot in Santa Monica sits a five-story underground facility turning runoff & wastewater into groundwater, and making @santamonicacity upwards of 85% water self-reliant.

Before 🥊 Rocky (@TheSlyStallone) ran up the Philly Art Museum (@visitpham) steps, the city had already climbed a bigger hill — clean #water for everyone 💧 In the 19th century, cities grew faster than safe water could flow. Philly’s bold #innovation changed that.
Philly’s success 💪 inspired #Chicago, #NewYork & beyond to build modern #watersystems that shaped public health and cities across America 🌆

Don't miss this fascinating interview with Deven Upadhyay, soon-to-be outgoing GM of the @mwdh2o.

One thing is sure: this job will never be an easy one.

Today is the deadline for the #CORiver basin states to reach an agreement on cutbacks before the Federal government steps in (or at least have threatened to).
Stay tuned as the workday comes to a close...

Many of the people who keep California’s water flowing once served in uniform. 💧🇺🇸
This #VeteransDay, we honor all who have served — and especially the veterans who now serve again through our water infrastructure.
