Frost Free Sill Cocks

Pops has frost free sill cocks on his house, even though his house is built on a slab.  That makes it somewhat of an adventure to replace them because I know of no way to provide backup for removing the sill cock and not unscrewing some section of pipe further into the house.  I really have no idea how they are attached so this may or may not be a big issue.

Anyway, they both leak.  I can attempt repairs of the washer, etc, but I have to 1) find the right repair parts, and 2) most places I’ve read about and my personal experience both say that repaired sill cocks frequently still leak after the repair.

Eh…..oh well.  Gotta do something.  The one in the back yard doesn’t simply leak it is running.  I have it plugged with a plastic screw-on shutoff valve for now.  Looks like I’m about to learn some more handyman skills.
