Yes you have posted many of your follies. How does your ignorance help the OP?

It doesn't but just can't pass up a good slap to someone that thought is was a good idea to attack with his ignorance then hide like a little ****.

But I did give the OP a cheap and easy fix.

I also post from facts not from the slurry sucked out of a drugged wine soaked bums ass.

Yes they work. Many here are overthinking it IMO.
In most cases you don’t have to heat the valve. Just keep the cold or air off of it. Hell a rag would probably work.
Or someone could use the styrofoam cover and stuff it with fiberglass insulation.

Put in frost proof spigots

alright, well on further inspection, one of my faucets did take damage and start leaking after that hard freeze. New 4" frost proof sillcocks are ordered and will be installed this week or next. yup looks like i'm cutting open the walls, but I do not intend to leave access panels, I will likely just have the walls re-patched when they're done.

Thanks y'all!

You’re in that “buy once and cry once” lane. Sucks but I think you are doing it right. The aggravation and $$
Good luck.

Patching is easy, painting that matches is hard

Anyone ever tried these? If so, do they work well?

Oh, dear Lord. Is Large Slob still trying to pretend that he is smarter than the educated people here? That is just so sad.

A drunken day laborer.

I only see his posts when one of you guys quote him, but they are quite pathetic. Reminds me a bit of Darkman00, if any of you guys remember him. Same misspellings and grammatical mistakes. Same strange use of inappropriate emojis.

Once again I gave good information for your wife. I am sorry you were unable to understand it.

there is entirely too much spigotry in this thread

so I'm a bit confused....you're going to cut the sheet rock to put in shut off valves but going to seal them up with no access panel ?

I stick with old school tried and true.

Sounds like he's only putting in a long stemmed spigot and hoping for the best, no shutoff
