I have the Legend T-550 frost free sillcocks installed (six of them) and need more water from them. I'm trying to grow grass, with spike sprinklers that flow through to the next one, but my pressure is anemic. It's not my well pump (18+ gpm); I think it's the restriction built into the T-550. My plumber (the installer- it's a new house) says that he can't put in higher flow valves (code reasons?) and said I might want to pull out the Legends and put in simple high flow valves, but I like the Legends, and I like the frost freeness.
In one of the threads, Cass referred to 'reaming out' the Legends specifically. Is this hard? I guess I mean - how does one do this? Is the restriction near the end opposite the knob? Could I do it with a drill press? How big can/should I bore it out?
Any help here, guys, would be appreciated. Thanks!
