Freezeless, Anti-burst Outdoor Faucet Quiz

 

 

Model 19

The Woodford Model 19 freezeless, anti-burst residential wall faucet prevents burst pipes—even if the hose is attached in freezing temperatures. The Woodford Model 19 outdoor faucet, with its easily identifiable oval handle, features a patented Pressure Relief Valve that prevents pressure build-up and burst tubes. For just a few dollars more than a freezeless faucet, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their faucet won't burst in freezing weather, even if they forget to remove the hose. This product is made in the USA and is backed by a 5 Year, $5,000 Limited Warranty. For more information, please contact Woodford Manufacturing at woodfordmfg.com.

Do you want to test your outdoor faucet knowledge? Take this 9 question quiz put together by Plumbing & Mechanical to see if you are a superstar or need to go back to the classroom.
