3. Water is leaking from the hydrant inside my house.

Unfortunately, your Freezeless Hydrant is broken, most likely beyond repair.  This happens when the water cannot drain out of the Freezeless Hydrant, it freezes, expands and ruptures the copper shaft of the Freezeless Hydrant inside the structure.  The most common reasons for this problem is that the garden hose was left attached to the hydrant during freezing weather, or the hydrant was not installed with the proper drainage pitch.

DO NOT OPERATE THE HYDRANT

IF THIS IS OCCURRING!

Since the Hydrant shuts off inside the house, if it stays in the off position you will not get water inside the structure.

IT IS A GOOD IDEA TO REMOVE THE HANDLE TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL OPERATION UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS REPAIRED BY YOUR PLUMBER!
