,Which statement is true of dry barrel hydrants?
Whenever the hydrant is not in use, the barrel remains filled with pressurized water.
When the hydrant is fully closed, the drain is fully open.
When the hydrant is fully closed, the drain is also fully closed.
An opening at the top of the barrel allows the water to drain out after each use.
When the hydrant is fully closed, the drain is fully open.
