My Woodford Iowa 205C outdoor hydrant "variable flow" is now a steady flow, as in more than a big drip.
I've done a fair amt of DIY indoor plumbing, but not sure where to start with this unit.
Should I just start taking it apart? I'm assuming I want to replace the whole unit.
ANd what precautions should i be taking with the long pipe, if any?
It is probably 31 years old. It has dripped in past, but usually just adjusting the flow gear and turning on and off has stopped or minimized it.
The aspen trees are probably loving the extra water, but i don't think our pressure tank likes it.
