Fixing Your Woodford Outdoor Faucet

Eagle Mountain Products is the official online retailer and carries the full line of Woodford outdoor watering devices and accessories.   Since we know virtually everything there is to know about Woodford products, we are also a source for troubleshooting and repairing any one of our faucets or yard hydrants and carry all of the parts to do so.   

For incidence, if your Woodford frost free faucet or hydrant is leaking from the spout when it is turned off, it may be that the valve seat rubber is worn or damaged and needs to be replaced.  Or it could be the retainer screw is loose.  While a simple repair, it is important to do and we have the genuine Woodford replacement parts you need.  After you turn off the water, please follow our online instructions.   

Another problem can be water leaking from around the operating stem when the faucet is on.  In this case the leak can generally be fixed by tightening the hex packing nut.  Without removing any parts, tighten the packing nut behind the handle until snug and the leaking stops.  If it is still leaking, it may require a new EPDM packing that is readily available at Eagle Mountain.   

Leaks can also be caused by a worn out vacuum breaker.  Woodford’s durable anti-siphon vacuum breakers are designed to protect your hose connection from contamination, and we have models intended for use in freezing temperatures.  You may want to consider our exclusive Woodford 50H Series that protects from splash-back and is the first ASSE 1052 approved automatic draining high-flow double-check backflow preventer.   It is available in a choice of brass or chrome and 1/2" or 3/4" threads.  Please visit our website to view our full selection of outdoor faucets, hydrants, upgrade kits and repair parts.
