A hose bibb is a faucet that goes outside of your home and connects to the interior plumbing system. You may also see it referred to as an exterior faucet, hose faucet, wall hydrant, hose valve or outdoor tap. By any name, a hose bibb usually has a half-inch or three-quarter-inch connector that can accommodate a hose and a handle that you twist to control the flow of water.

Or visit your neighborhood Ace Hardware store to get help selecting a new hose bibb or wall hydrant. While you’re there, you can also find additional plumbing parts like valve parts and handles, pressure regulator valves and shut-off valves.

A yard hydrant provides another way to get access to water outdoors. Instead of connecting to interior plumbing like a hose bibb, a yard hydrant attaches to an underground supply pipe that carries water away from a well. The hydrant rises from the ground and has a handle at the top. When you raise the handle, a plunger lifts off the valve, allowing water to flow through the hydrant and out the spout.

Because boiler drains connect to heating systems, they have a higher maximum operating temperature than hose bibbs. They also feature ball valves rather than compression valves, so they typically turn on with just a quarter-twist to quickly start the flow of water.

Boiler drains look similar to hose bibbs but their designs are different. Boiler drains are components of some heating systems, much like thermostats. The primary purpose of these drains is to shuttle water and sediment away from the heating system in your home. The outside part has a threaded end that allows you to connect a hose.

Most yard hydrant models have a threaded attachment for connecting a hose. You can also use hydrants to fill buckets, wash off tools and perform other yard related tasks that require water outdoors.
