Okay, I got the difference between the pillar hydrants. What about dry-hydrants where you need to pump water out of a river/pond. There is not a shutoff in the center of the bonnet.
Formerly this [1] would have been: > fire_hydrant:type=pond > fire_hydrant:pressure=suction WIth the new proposal this would be then: > fire_hydrant:type=pipe > fire_hydrant:pressure=suction Is this right? In German one would translate pipe as "Ansaugrohr".
