I will be adding a outside hose to water the lawn, wash the car etc. I bought a hose bibb and noticed it only has about a 3/16 hole in it, looks very restrictive. I have not looked at a wall hydrant in person but am thinking since they say they are for irrigation they would have more flow. Here is the one I am thinking of getting. Thoughts? Thanks https://www.menards.com/main/plumbi...26-c-19519.htm?tid=2889357213563476129&ipos=5

That one is for frost . make sure you put slope on it . if you need more flow consider the size of hole yes
