fire hydrants
8/19/2015 at 9:59 PM
Generally ALL fire hydrants are 600 feet apart I believe ... So your house if in town will be within 300 feet of any hydrant
You get better rates for better protection grades ( protected is within 300 feet of a hydrant, semi protected is within 8km of an approved fire hall etc)... You don't get "discounts" for fire hydrants.
Some towns have fire hydrants that are not connected/ in service ... Your insurance broker should be able to determine what your protection grade is based on postal codes. Contact them
