Watts FHB - Manual

The frost-proof sill cock assures no-freeze operation because the
valve mechanism shuts off water inside the building, where it is
heated. If building will be unheated for any length of time, then all
water lines should be drained and plumbing fixtures winterized.
A plastic siding wedge is provided to
compensate for lap siding installations.
Slip the wedge between frost-proof
flange and siding to form an attractive
finish and solid base for mounting.
Secure sill cock flange with two #8 or
#10 ovalhead wood screws (of proper
length) or with appropriate masonry
hardware.
Installation Instructions
In addition to protection from freezing, the anti-siphon protects
against possible outside water being siphoned back into the
water supply system.
Provides a year round supply of outside water without fear of
pipes freezing and bursting. Hose must be removed to allow
water to drain to prevent freezing.
