Hi all,
I have a leaky frost free faucet, and have been pulling my hair out (what little I have) trying to find out what kind I have, so I can get a replacement. It's time to turn to the experts!
Attached are a few pictures of the faucet; my best guess is that it's an Arrowhead Brass model, but I can't find anything exactly like it on their website (the closest I can get is their Series 420, but even then it's not exact; for example mine is silver, and theirs are all brass colored).
I was so sure it was an Arrowhead 420, that I got the PK2016 "springless check assembly", but upon removing the stem and noticing 2 key differences, I'm really not sure anymore. Differences: There's a spring holding the check valve in the stem on my unit, and there's a square/star washer on the end (the PK2016 is round). It also overall looks very different, but I'm not sure if that's because my check valve rubber may be completely gone.
Please forgive me if I don't do the pictures just right... I'm new to this forum and not exactly sure how it all works.
Please help, and thank you!
