So I wanted to get the automatic dog water bowl set up, but my faucet is leaking when I turn it on! A quick google-You Tube search tells me it's my anti-siphon valve. It's leaking from that little plastic cap on the top.
Well, if you unscrew that little plastic cap, there's more plastic inside.
So I unscrewed the guts and headed to the local hardware store.....let me say, I am now reminded why I love to shop on line. The first guy asked me, "is the handle brown or tan?" Moving on to hardware store two. nope, they don't have it. On to Lowe's, nope they don't have it, but at least the guy there knew what it was! He showed me the tiny rubber gasket that I could try to replace. On to Amazon!
Unfortunately the gasket I tried from Lowe's didn't work-still leaking.
My Amazon order arrived the next day. It wasn't exactly the correct part, but it had all the bits I needed to replace so it was a good donor kit. Done!
The dog dish is now leak free!
