Hey Mike,

NFPA 25 – Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems covers the maintenance requirements for dry barrel hydrants. It is addressed under 7.2.2.4 of that standard. It requires these hydrants to be inspected annually and after each operation. Hope this helps!
