Your Woodford freezeless Type 19 sillcock is fashioned as well as meant for year-round non commercial watering functions irregardless of external climate. A great copyrighted stress treatment valve (PRV) thwarts breakage within the iced temps, even in the event that the water hose happens to be accidentally kept attached to the sillcock. Your sillcock may yet become frozen, however it will not rupture. As a result, this product prevents water damage when hose is left on. Woodford Model 19 also contains an integral backflow protection device which protects up to 125 psi of back pressure and therefore does not require an add-on vacuum breaker.

Other sillcock features include an EPDM rubber packing that helps prevent leaking behind the packing nut, a stainless-steel seat to help prevent wire draw, full-circle operating threads on the valve body and retainer for a secure fit, powder-coated die-cast aluminum round handle for strength, standard O size seat washer, adjustable polycarbonate wall flange, no-lead solder and brass construction.
