What Makes a Woodford PRV So Special?

You may be wondering exactly what a Woodford patented Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) is and what makes it so special? Our PRV prevents the faucet tube from rupturing, and any consequent water damage that may occur during freezing conditions, even when a hose is inadvertently left connected to the faucet. The faucet will still freeze, however it will not rupture. As a result, the PRV provides a homeowner peace of mind and prevents costly water damage.

Eagle Mountain Products knows that a frost free outdoor faucet is a requirement in climates that experience freezing conditions. We carry the entire line of quality Woodford products for you to choose from. A couple of our more popular frost free faucets, the Model 19, 22 and V22 already come equipped with the added protection of the patented PRV.

If you have an existing Woodford frost free faucet or are looking to buy one other than the Model 19 or 22, we have a kit that allows you to upgrade your faucet with our PRV. The Woodford Adjustable Rod Kit includes all the necessary parts to retrofit the most-common 4" to 14" Woodford operating rods and comes with the patented PRV.

To order the kit, you will not be required to remove the existing rod to determine the rod length. Just purchase kit and once you receive it, watch our instructional step-by-step video to use as your guide for installing the kit. The package includes instructions and a diagram to scale, which will allow you to determine the correct length rod to place into your existing Woodford faucet.

Consider the advantages of buying a Woodford frost free outdoor water faucet:

• It allows you to use the faucet without worry, year-round, for immediate water even during sub-zero conditions. 
• Once the faucet is properly installed, it will safely contain the water in the portion of tubing that sits inside your insulated house, instead of outside where temperatures may be below freezing. 
• Has the option to upgrade your new or current Woodford faucet by installing the patented PRV. You will get you the added protection of knowing that even if you leave a hose attached to the faucet during freezing temperature, you are still protected from ruptured pipes.
