What happens here

Before attempting to remove the old spigot, assess the internal piping connection. It is crucial to have a backup wrench or tool to secure the pipe from the inside, preventing it from twisting or breaking when torque is applied to the exterior spigot. This is especially important if the pipe is not securely fastened within the wall.

Goal: Ensure internal piping is secure or can be supported during spigot removal
