WOODFORD-Model 17 8, 12" 1/2" MPT x Sweat Inlet Anti-Siphon Wall Faucet w/ Metal Handle

The Woodford Model 17 1/2 in MPT × Sweat Inlet Anti-Siphon Wall Faucet with Metal Handle is a premium residential frost-free wall hydrant engineered for dependable year-round outdoor water service. It features a CP inlet with a 1/2 in male NPT × 1/2 in female sweat connection, providing flexibility for either threaded or copper sweat plumbing installations. Constructed with a forged brass body, heavy-duty copper tube, stainless steel valve seat, and a powder-coated die-cast aluminum metal handle, the faucet incorporates an integral anti-siphon backflow protection device that protects against backsiphonage up to 125 PSI without requiring an add-on vacuum breaker. The frost-free design positions the shut-off valve inside the heated structure to help prevent freezing when installed correctly and the hose is removed.

Usage

The Woodford Model 17 CP is designed for residential outdoor applications including lawn and garden irrigation, vehicle washing, patio cleaning, pressure washing, and general hose connections. Its frost-free construction automatically drains after shutoff when the hose is removed, helping prevent freeze damage during cold weather. The combination 1/2 in male NPT × 1/2 in female sweat inlet offers installation flexibility for both threaded and soldered plumbing systems, making it suitable for new construction and replacement installations.
