hose bib

After getting forum help on identifying what turned out to be a Woodford 25, I'm wondering if you could help identify this leaking hose bib from an older section of the same building. No markings that I can see. Google Lens wasn't any help either. Thanks. David Thanks.

I need to replace the outdoor faucet, it leaks. It is mounted against aluminum siding. I'd like to find something better to mount the new faucet to, but I am not willing to cut my siding. Are there any products that will provide a flat(er) surface for the faucet and accommodate the slope of the...

I found the pictured hose bib on the back of a stand-alone garage built shortly before we purchased our property in 2017. I've lived with it, but finally decided to swap it our for the correct fixture so I could add a pressure regulator and stop bursting the leader hose to the timer. I...

I can't for the life of me figure this one out. Maybe you all can help a lady out. I noticed a vibrating sound coming from my pipes when I turn water off in the house. All pipes are quiet until I use water and as I turn off any of the faucets the vibration starts and continues for about 20...

Wall faucet, hose bib, sillcock or hydrant, lots of different names for the same item. I used to use the Woodford 101CP with integrated vacuum breaker. Not that I really need that feature. After I replaced a couple due to the vacuum breaker leaking (yes, I know about the rebuild kit that...

Hi, all: Long story short, I got a split frost-free spigot pipe and I am interested in a DIY job to replace it. At first, I attempted to thread it off with medium-level force but didn't succeed. I searched online and figured out the type of spigot should be the Arrowhead 486 with 1/2" MIP and...

My house hose bib busted off 1/2" CPVC. (I not that great at DIY but I need to save from being gouged). The pipe broke where there's a fitting over it. So, I can't just glue on a cap. It's bigger than 1/2 and less than the next size up. Is there any easy plug out there that will hold for a...

I have a hose bibb/faucet valve that is stuck open. I also have a 2 outlet adapter attached to it with it's own valve, so I can turn water on and off. Can anyone give me an idea as to why I can't turn the valve to off, and how to fix it? It's getting cold here in Oregon this week, and I...

Hi All, First time post for me looking for some help on a new home I purchased. Appreciate any input. I have 3/4 copper main branching off to 1/2 copper for fixtures..pretty normal. My question is...for my hose bibs I have the 1/2 branch off the main, however it connects to a 3/4 Sillcock...

I have an old leaky hose bib embossed with a logo of a "T". I can not figure out to remove the stem valve to replace the gasket. I can not find the brand name that uses a T logo. I have reviewed many youtube and other instructions. I removed the packing nut and tried to unscrew, pullout, etc the...

Hello all, I'm looking to add a garden valve/spigot/hose bib whatever you want to call it to a irrigation main line that is 1 inch Sch 40 PVC. I'm going to T it, put a reducer to 3/4 inch since this is the brass garden valve sizes I'm finding. Im familiar with the PVC to copper transition...

When I think about all of the shutoff valves in our homes that may never get turned off like those for our main water turnoff, inside valves to turn off our hose bibs for the winter or those under our sinks that feed our sink faucets - - they are ALWAYS under "continuous use". In my new home...

I have connected 1 orbit 4 Zone Timer to my hose bib so that the timer is of course downstream. Plumbing code states as follows... "A shutoff valve should never be placed downstream of any AVB, as this would result in continuous pressure on the AVB" I have also come to learn that hose bibs...

Hello all, I'm new to this so please bare with me. My rental property in Sparks NV. Has a front water spigot that has not been used in years. We are looking to sell the house soon and want to fix it up. A couple years ago, I went to use the front hose and no water came out. I was in a hurry and...
