Protect Your Home with Watco's Freezeless Faucets

Winter is just around the corner for many of us and that means freezing temperatures and scrambling to make sure we have everything winterized, including our outdoor faucets and hydrants. Disconnecting the garden hose is the best practice for protecting your home from a burst pipe, but you can also easily install a frost-free hose bib. Woodford offers frost-free hydrants and anti-burst faucets that are designed to help eliminate accidents and provide the highest level of protection for your home all year long.

It's Time for Winter Preparation

When preparing for the cold winter months, the first thing you want to do is remove the hose from the faucet to ensure there will be no damage to your frost-free hose bib during subzero temperatures. For additional protection throughout the winter months, consider the Woodford Model 19 anti-burst faucet.

Turning off the water supply to your outdoor faucet from inside the house will provide the most protection. Typically, there is a separate shut-off valve located in the house, but some older homes may not have these valves.

With an integrated vacuum breaker and correct installation, Woodford freezeless faucets help shield your outside faucet from the damaging effects of freezing winter weather. When the faucet is turned off and not in use, frost-free hose bibs should be fitted with a slight downward slope, allowing the water to easily drain.
