OK, this SHOULD be a simple thing....

The vacuum breaker on the sealcock for the faucets front and back leak like crazy.





Obviously it is a Prier but it is what the builder used on the house 21 years ago when the house was built. It does not look like what I find on the internet.

My question, is do any of you know WHAT exact model it is, and will a vacuum breaker repair kit from one of the modern its from the C-134, C-144 or P-164 work in my faucet?

The house has a typical layer of brick on the outside of the house, and the faucet is slightly recessed in a few inch deep pocket. It will be a royal pain in the butt to change it, assuming it was not sweated on, than it is a mega pain. I really want to avoid having to change it entirely.

Any suggestions? Comments?

Prier makes faucets for all sorts of brands so it probably isn't an actual Prier faucet as evidenced by the lack of 'Prier' cast into the side of the faucet. And because Prier manufactures so many brands of faucets, it's probably a universal part. Repair kit 630-7500 is what you'll probably need. As well, this video shows that exact kit being used on a hydrant exactly like yours (which isn't a Prier but the repair kit is). See here:

Thanks. I found the same videos but I figured they were for a specific valve. With luck, my old one will still work what what is one the market now.

I am always gun shy with using off the shelf parts. My old house was built about 1950 and every single project ever on that house I would hear some expert say "wow, I have never seen that before!" or just as helpful, "wow I have not seen that model or (whatever) in 30 years, where did you dig that up"

At lease I don't have any lead pipe drains anymore, or 50 year old faucets.
