Got an Iowa hydrant that seems to be leaking underground, but only when it's on. Use it almost daily, year around, and never had a problem. Hooked it up to the float valve on stock tank, and the ground starts getting muddy, and water starts welling up in the hole in the concrete that the hydrant goes through. Turn it off, and the ground dries out.
I'm wondering if the seals are letting it leak out of the drain, when the float is shutting off? Is this possible?
What are my repair options?
