Woodford 22px-6-mh Freezeless Hot Cold Wall Faucet

Product Description

The WOODFORD 22px-6-mh is a freezeless hot and cold wall faucet designed for year-round outdoor irrigation and cleaning applications. Built on the Model 22PX platform, this unit features separate hot and cold inlet tubes that allow manual temperature control while maintaining cross-contamination protection. An integral backflow protection device eliminates the need for an add-on vacuum breaker. Patented pressure relief valves prevent the faucet body from bursting in freezing conditions if a hose is accidentally left connected. Licensed plumbers and irrigation professionals install this faucet where both hot and cold water supply lines are accessible at an exterior wall.

This faucet is suited for residential and light commercial applications requiring outdoor hot and cold water access regardless of outside temperature. Typical installations include exterior utility areas, equipment wash-down stations, greenhouses, and outdoor cleaning setups where freeze protection is required throughout winter months. The anti-siphon and pressure relief features make it appropriate for potable water systems subject to local backflow prevention codes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC).
