Answers Questions Regarding Woodford Faucets




We recommend that before you buy a new outdoor faucet or try to repair your existing one that you take a look at Eagle Mountain Products’ comprehensive website.  As the official online retailer for the Woodford Manufacturing Company, we stock and sell the complete line of high-quality faucets and yard hydrants.
   
In addition customers will find information about the Woodford product line that they will not find anywhere else.  We not only sell the products but do our best to educate customers in regards to buying the right faucet or hydrant and how to install and use it.  
Here are a few questions that we are frequently asked regarding our Woodford frost free faucets:

Q: Do I need to buy a frost free faucet?
A: You do if you live in a climate that experiences freezing temperatures.  By installing a frost freeoutdoor watering device, you will protect yourself from ruptured pipes and any ensuing water damage that may occur. 

Q: How do I install a frost free faucet so I know it will work properly?
A: The correct installation requires a downward pitch as it allows the water to drain from the faucet.  Please see our video on installing our most popular frost free faucets.  Also remember you will need to remove the hose during freezing conditions, otherwise it will prevent the water from draining out and can cause the pipe to burst.

Q:  I need help finding replacement parts for an older Woodford product.
A:  You have come to the right place.  We have repair kits for every faucet and hydrant built since 1929.   Check out our Repair Kit guide for further information and assistance.   


Also remember that our frost free yard hydrants are a convenient way to water a large lawn or garden.  When you get a frost free model, you are protected against freezing as the shut-off valve for the hydrant is below the frost line when installed properly.  Once the hydrant is shut-off, and all devices removed from the nozzle, the hydrant will drain completely and the pipes will not freeze.

Eagle Mountain Products Company is the official online retailer of Woodford Manufacturing Company.  Our website offers a selection of quality products and supplies for your outside watering needs.  We also provide detailed information and video instructions for repairing or installing our Woodford outside faucets.
