Outdoor water spigot to hose sizing

[mathew850]

Hello.

I recently bought a house that has an outdoor spigot that I am having difficulty connecting my garden hose to. The spigot has a 1.16" opening and I can't find a reducer to connect my 3/8" garden hose to it. I have attached an image in this post. My house is in the Dallas region built in 2001.

What kind of reducer can I use on this spigot to connect to a simple garden hose to it? It does not look like it has a backflow preventer installed too. I've gone to my local hardware stores but did not find anything I could use.

Appreciate any help !

I suspect you need a Arrowhead fine thread vacuum breaker, part number 58BFP.

Hardware stores should carry this.

Hello.

Quick update: The Arrowhead vacuum breaker worked well. I am able to connect a hose to the outdoor faucet now.

Thank you @Reach4 and @Terry.
