Don’t Replace your Leaking Hose Bib! Rebuild It Instead
What happens here
The presenter goes inside the house to locate the water shut-off valve for the outdoor faucet. He identifies a pressure reducing valve and a shut-off valve extending from the wall behind a guitar case. He turns the shut-off valve clockwise (righty-tighty) to completely stop the water flow to the outdoor faucet. This prevents water from flowing while the repairs are being performed.
Goal: Isolate the outdoor faucet from the main water supply
