Backflow prevention is essential for protecting your home’s water supply, and the integrated anti-siphon valve makes this sillcock a smarter choice for irrigation and exterior faucets.

With a sturdy 250 psi rating, this faucet handles peak water pressure without sagging or leaking.

Installation, compatibility & care tips
- Designed with two 1/2 in MIP threads, End 1 and End 2, for straightforward connections to typical plumbing and hose setups.
- Best installed where the valve can be positioned inside the wall cavity to maximize frost resistance and minimize exposure to the elements.
- Winterize by draining residual water and ensuring seals are intact to maintain long-term performance.
- Clean with mild soap and water to preserve the chrome finish; avoid abrasive cleaners that could dull the shine.
