You may have noticed the fire hydrants in Kaw City have been painted and that some of the hydrants look different. That is because fire hydrants may flow different gallons per minute due to their location along a water line or the size of line feeding the hydrant.
These three hydrants pictured are from different locations around the city and shows the different colors and what those colors mean. We here in Kaw City have 53 hydrants with the vast majority of those hydrants flowing at the upper end of yellow and green.
