Terms of use

These terms apply to Hydrant Finder: the website at hydrantfinder.au and the iPhone and Apple Watch apps, made by Resynthesis. By using Hydrant Finder you agree to them. Last updated 5 November 2026.

The information may be wrong

Hydrant Finder shows hydrant locations, types and other details from published records, along with distances, directions, Street View pictures and council water tank positions. This information is provided as is, for general guidance only. It can be incomplete, inaccurate or out of date: a hydrant may be missing, in a different place, a different type, out of service, obstructed or not accessible, and some tank positions are approximate. Distances and directions are estimates.

Always check a hydrant, tank or route on the ground, and with the relevant authority where it matters, before relying on it. Don't rely on Hydrant Finder as your only source of information.

Not an official service

Hydrant Finder is independent. It isn't run, endorsed or checked by any water authority, council or government agency.

Your responsibility

You're responsible for how you use the information, including following the law, staying safe and respecting private property. Don't use Hydrant Finder while driving in a way that distracts you.

Our liability

To the extent permitted by law, we make no promise that Hydrant Finder or its information is accurate, complete, current or always available, and we aren't liable for any loss or damage arising from using it or relying on it.

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or changes any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that can't lawfully be excluded. Where our liability for a failure to meet a consumer guarantee can be limited, it is limited, at our choice, to supplying the service again or paying the cost of having it supplied again.

Other services

Maps, Street View, directions and address search come from third parties under their own terms. We aren't responsible for their content or availability.

Changes

We may change Hydrant Finder or these terms at any time. The current terms are always on this page. These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia.
