4:54 Stem does not simply rotate, unthread, with the cap. It doesn't come out at all. Any ideas?

Perfect video… fixed my exact issue in 2 minutes.

Way to many variations, poorly engineered and constrcted.

I had to install a Sharkbite in-line shutoff valve ahead of this poorly designed sillcock in the basement because I’m unable to keep it from leaking. And by the way, Sharkbite now makes a variety of outdoor faucets that appear to be top quality and as just as brilliantly designed as all Sharkbite products are. I’ll be replacing all of these overly complicated old sillcocks with the Sharkbite versions instead of trying to rebuild these relics.

This happened to my Prier right out of the box - and I'm glad it was just tightening the valve stem. Saved me from going down a rabbit hole.

I paid $45 for this faucet. Within 2 years it's leaking. The best price I can find the for the repair kit is $10. I found a faucet that isn't frost-proof for $15. That's just a regular faucet. Instead of paying $10 for a replacement valve repair kit, I bought a new faucet and replaced the whole thing. I figure ever 1-2 years I'm going to be spending $10 or more on a repair kit. What a scam. I feel stupid for buying this product.

1. Use repair kit, still drips unless super tight. 2. Crack the knob because of cranking on it to stop dripping. 3. Replace knob and entire stem factory assembled 4. Crack another knob because of the same drip 5. Try a final full stem 6. Same drip, Install a whole new faucet

What if you’ve stripped the vacuum breaker?!

What if you’ve stripped the vacuum breaker?!

On the C-108, it needs to be pitched down toward the spigot to allow the hydrant body to drain out, correct? So the whole thing needs to be mounted slightly crooked on the wall? How much offset is needed to ensure it drains properly?

That goddamn bell washer is the biggest pain in the ass I've ever had the misfortune to have to deal with. No matter which end of the stem you put it on from (and there are no instructions telling you the best way), you have to drag it over sharp projections on the stem, and you have to stretch it until it's ready to snap to get over them, so it's already taken a beating before it even goes into service. At least put a little picture of how it goes on, because it's guaranteed (I find out later) to turn inside out when you pull out the stem.

Too confusing. Too many variants, Too many replaceable parts. No instructions on what goes on the end. I'm about ready to go back to an old style freeze proof outdoor fawcet.

You should clarify the pitch issue in the install instructions. It says they "require" a pitch but doesn't explain if it's built in or something I have to do myself in the installation. I was googling for days before I found this video. On the C-108 it also doesn't specify if there's a correct direction for install, which there must be if the pitch is built in.

Judging by the rest of the comments I'm not the only one here because mine failed prematurely. I should have bought a better brand

Can't find any pricing on your website.

And if my handle is stuck and won’t budge???!

great video. I bought one when I renovated my home. I think one of my children turned the temperature control wheel too much and now I can't tell where is not and cold. Will changing the temperature control wheel fix this problem? Thanks for anticipated help

Your products and guides are terrible. Can't wait to replace them. Three Prier faucets all are crap. Wish I could bill you for my wasted time and water.

I have been fighting this thing since it was installed 2 years ago. It leaks like a sieve.

I'm afraid to buy this peace's and my faucet still be leaking :( I guess I going to give a try I'm tired of the leak issue

So the title of the video is a bit misleading. Perhaps this video should be called, identifying your hydrant as there's no actual service and repair advice beyond identification in the entire video.

How do you tell if it is a 300 ,400 or 500 series?

What he did at 00:10 seconds is exactly what fixed my issue. The water was leaking from the green handle only when a water hose was connected. When the water hose was connected, the water was coming out of the handle in a nice steady stream. I then tightened it, and the water only came out in slow drops. Then I tightened it a little bit more, and there's no more water leak from the handle. I was ready to replace all the pieces to get this fixed. Such a simple solution that took me multiple years to figure out. 😂

Sure would be nice if you clowns would post a video on how to SEAT the backflow boot. Damn near impossible!

Angelo, no offense my man... but what a sh*tshow!

Thank you! The video was perfect and no more leaks!

Informative but the music is irritating.

I know you are trying to help but not having the part# stamped in this piece is retarded!

Those plastic handles are junk.

The packing nut doesn't even fit in mine. There wasn't even a nut in my hydrant when I unscrewed the handle. Is there a smaller kit?

DEFECTIVE design. My Prier M400 has always dripped behind the handle. As the drip because a stream, I bought the repair kit 630-7755 and replacement handle based on the Prier repair videos. Despite following the instructions, the handle continued to leak. The 630-7755 and handle cost me $30 and were a complete waste of money. The defective design is where the packing nut and handle attach to each other. It is a plastic-to-plastic connection WITHOUT any washer whatsoever. Under water pressure, water seeps out no matter how snug you tighten the handle and the water streams out behind the handle. This is DEFECTIVE design and cannot be remedied by a new handle, new packing nut or any of the other difficult to replace washers. EPIC FAIL!!!!

My M400 steam did not look anything like the stem pictured. Mine has a rubber boot gasket at the end. My hydrant has been leaking and despite using replacement parts from the 630-7755 kit, the hydrant continues to leak. Can the stem be defective? After spending $30 on a new handle and new replacement parts, should I throw more money at a replacement stem? Why does my M400 stem look so different than the one in your demo?

Epic fail. The stem on my M400 stem did not look anything like the one in the video. I replaced the graphite washer and other pieces as best I could, including a brand-new handle, and the hydrant leaked the same as before. $30 down the drain.

What happens if the plastic nut breaks because it was stuck???

This video and comments below about white vacuum breaker having broken off were very helpful - especially suggestion to use hair dryer to soften the hard white plastic. Note: since this video was make, the replacement part for the vacuum breaker has apparently been modified. In Wall Hydrant Repair Kit #630-8500, the white plastic part self contains the poppit (sp?) that is in the middle. I was worried about damaging the poppit in the middle but no need to be concerned.

This product should not even exist! I've spent more money on replacing EVERY part on here that I could have bought a new non-Prier hydrant.

Worked perfectly!

The diamond version without the spring loaded tip does not operate as a check valve then?

I replaced the washers and vacuum with both kits on my 500 series (house is 20 years old) I’m sure it’s original but it still drips. Do I need to replace the stem at this point?

hello... i have the 478-12L product. do i need to remove the stem prior to soldering the valve into place? thank you

The screw in the middle of the handle is rusted and broken. How do I remove the handle?

Thank you..Repaired my 2 faucets...easy to follow instructions...but that little O ring was hard to find..it was really stuck and hidden...faucets work great..no more leaks at handle area!

what do I do with the washer that came with the packing?

Awesome video. You rock. Very helpful. 👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you for this video. The only problem is that the hand wheel on mine seems stuck somehow. I don’t want to force it out. What could possibly cause this?

Man you guys are precious. Is it so hard to stamp a part number on the part that sits outside the wall?

Can't believe some of the petty moaning complaints about this video. This was a very professional and informative video. Exactly what I needed to fix my leaky faucet. Thank you for producing this video.

I'm very confused. I replaced the whole vacuum breaker and cap with the equal Prier replacement kit one mentioned here and double checked installation, yet water is still seeping down out of the sides of the cap. If I've replaced the whole thing now with a new one, how could it still be leaking? Fyi - My original breaker and replacement kit are the newer version where the inside piece of the breaker that has the small o-ring is fully locked inside the larger white piece due to a small plastic screen bottom piece that snaps into place (so the inner small piece cannot fall out).

Well done!

You don’t show how to disassemble it completely
