The Woodford Model 17: A Faucet You Can Count On


If you are in the market to replace or install a new outdoor faucet, you may want to consider the Woodford Model 17. This dependable, frost free faucet is one of Eagle Mountain Products’ best sellers and can be counted on for many years of reliable service. The Model 17 is just one of a full line of quality outdoor faucets and yard hydrants that you will find on our website.

In order to offer even more protection to our most popular frost free faucets, Woodford has introduced a patented Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) Adjustable Rod Kit that prevents pipes from rupturing even if you inadvertently leave a hose connected in freezing conditions.   The PRV Rod Kit is simple to install and you do need to remove the existing rod to determine the length you need – just watch our detailed video for all of the instructions.  Kits are available to upgrade the Woodford 14, 16, 17, 19, 22 and V22 Models.
Although our outdoor faucets have been known to last for decades, we understand that they may need repair and replacement parts from time to time.  There is where owning a Woodford makes sense.  We want you to save time and money by repairing - not replacing. 

At Eagle Mountain Products, we not only carry the full selection of Woodford faucets but we also stock all replacement parts.  The Woodford 17 (as well as other models) has a complete repair kit, and combined with our outdoor faucet repair video, allows someone with very little plumbing experience to do the repairs.

Eagle Mountain Products is proud to be the authorized online retailer for the Woodford Manufacturing Company and we stock the complete inventory of quality Woodford outdoor faucets and yard hydrants.  Please check out our step-by-step videos for instructions on how to repair or install one of our Woodford products.

The Extremely Durable IOWA® Yard Hydrant


At Eagle Mountain Products, we have a saying that if only we could all look this good after 50 years, which is our affectionate way of saying that Iowa yard hydrants are built to last.  They are the products that started the Woodford Manufacturing Company, and yes, we do know that some of our hydrants are still operating after 50 years.

Woodford got its start in 1929 when J.C. Woodford bought the company and the manufacturing rights for the IOWA® Yard Hydrant to become the Woodford Hydrant Company.  Subsequently the company introduced commercial wall hydrants in 1955 and the first residential faucets in 1963.
Although Woodford has been manufacturing Iowa hydrants since 1929, there have been many improvements made to the hydrant over the years, but the good news is that parts are still interchangeable. 

Furthermore as an owner of an IOWA hydrant, you can easily make all repairs from the top of the unit without the added hassle of having to remove the hydrant from the ground.
The Iowa Model Y34 continues to be our most popular yard hydrant and provides an immediate water flow even in sub-zero temperatures.  Features include a variable-flow, long-life packing, a rod guide that eliminates side pull on the rod, and a 3/4" inlet and 1″ galvanized steel pipe.

Our Iowa Model Y1 is also one of our top selling hydrants and it too provides an immediate water flow in sub-zero temperatures.  The Y1 features include a variable-flow plunger; long-life packing, a rod guide that eliminates side pull on the rod, and a 1" inlet and 1 ¼” galvanized steel pipe. For your convenience, keep in mind that Eagle Mountain Products stocks all replacement parts for any obsolete model of yard hydrants and outdoor faucets.

Eagle Mountain Products Company is the only authorized online retailer for the Woodford Manufacturing Company.  We carry the full line of Woodford outdoor watering products that plumbers have used and trusted for years.  Our website provides extensive information and video instructions for repairing or installing our Woodford outside faucets.
