    Arrowhead BK1390, Non Standard Vacuum Breaker

    Thanks, I'll start looking locally to see if there are any Arrowhead at the plumbing shops here. I hope those are the ones, I really hate not being able to use the garden hose. :)

    Arrowhead BK1390, Non Standard Vacuum Breaker

    The faucet works fine, and it is the vacuum breaker replacement I am looking for, but haven't been able to find it anywhere. I have found vacuum breakers at the local plumbing supply but they are all pipe threads on both ends. This seems to have some mutant 1 inch (+) machine thread on the...

    Arrowhead BK1390, Non Standard Vacuum Breaker

    It doesn't come off, the part you see there above the tape appears to be sodered on (or some type of really hard glue). You can see a very thin bead of it going all around the edge when you look down on it from above. That piece in the photo that the tape is on does not screw off. Looks like...

    Arrowhead BK1390, Non Standard Vacuum Breaker

    I found this photo on a code violation page which just showed this as an example of an approved faucet, but doesn't list a name or anything like that... was just a kind of home inspection example page. Can anyone identify the make on this, from what can see, this looks exactly like the one I...

    Thanks, but they all look like the 3/4 pipe threads on the faucet end, and not the 1+ inch machine thread that is on the vacuum breaker to faucet connection. :( Thanks for sending the link though. Arrowhead BK1390

    Arrowhead BK1390, Non Standard Vacuum Breaker

    I think ya missed it above where I said I unscrewed it and took it to local hardware stores with no luck finding a replacement that fit. I was hoping to find someplace I can find a replacement since none of the local places seem to sell it. There is no set screw on it, although when I was...

    Arrowhead BK1390, Non Standard Vacuum Breaker

    It is a unscrewable attachment about 2.5 inches long. two chambers and the hose connector. It is just the end that screws on to the spigot is close to 1 inch in diameter and has a much finer thread that what seems to be the standard. :(

    Arrowhead BK1390, Non Standard Vacuum Breaker

    I have a outdoor spigot that has a vacuum breaker on it. I bought hte house 3 years ago and it was built 7 years ago. It appears the vacuum breaker on the spigot has gone bad. Water is spraying out of the middle portion of it and there seems to be no way to get in to the attachment to fix or...
