Is a vacuum breaker on a hose bib supposed to soak you with water?
Another newbie question - I attached a hose to the outdoor hose bib and when I turned off the water, I got soaked with water squirting out of the vacuum breaker. I have never had one of these before. Is it supposed to squirt water like that when turning off the hose? Or is the vacuum breaker bad (i.e. should the excess water drip out instead of squirt out)? The end of my hose has a sprayer attached which I assume caused the pressure.
Thanks,
Cindy
