ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for providing a frostproof sillcock for a structured wall having a spigot at one end and a pipe connection at the other, including a tubular member slid over the sillcock providing an annular area between the exterior of the sillcock and the interior of the tubular member. Elastomeric gaskets seal both ends of the tubular member. A small diameter opening in the tubular member adjacent the spigot receives a short length of small diameter flexible tubing so that one end of the tubing communicates with the annular area and the other end extends below the spigot and exteriorly of the building wall. Any leakage of the sillcock is thereby drained away.
