I'm not a professional and not even a good DIY guy, so bear with my attempt to describe my projedct. A faucet installed outside is the frost free thing with the anti-siphon valve on top (has a round cap) which has always leaked water from under that round screwed on cap when the water is turned on. I replaced that part with a kit from Home Depot, screwed the cap down good and the water sprayed out worse than ever. Well, I've had it with this thing, so got some J-B Weld and glued the cap onto the faucet itself {after removing the inside part that the cap used to screw onto.} I'm going to turn the water on in the morning after the epoxy cures real good and see what happens. Is there anything to worry about by welding that cap on there? My simplistic reasoning is that it will simply function now like a faucet w/o the anti-siphon feature. Will my pipes explode or something awful happen?
Thanks for any input.
