Saw this going to a friend’s house- they bagged the fire hydrants….one thought was snow; but this is the first year apparently. And snow has been a mild issue this year compared to most.

I imagine a fire hydrant is pretty expensive as well. Can’t imagine covering it in salt resistant paint would be that much of a price increase and even if it is I don’t imagine it would be cost prohibitive if it means a 20 year replacement cycle vs. a 10 year cycle.
If anything this may be protecting them from dog piss.

Well ya, that’s why you put it on when the thing is being installed. Not talking about a Reno/repair.
If they didn’t put salt resistant paint on it when they first installed the thing because it was a few hundred dollars more that would be stupid.
