These are pictures of Burlington fire hydrants. Most of them are very common but others are few in numbers as the city is replacing the older cast iron water mains and one-piece barrel fire hydrants. Historically significant and removed-from-service hydrants have typically been melted down as scrap in many communities including the city of Burlington. Taking inventory of hydrants currently in service and collecting hydrants as they become available, therefore, have become the primary means by which this part of fire service history can be preserved. To view Burlington's oldest fire hydrant go to Hydrant Collection.
