Frost Free Hose Bib Replacement in a Tight Space

What happens here

Working from the interior access point, carefully cut the existing copper pipe behind the soldered joint that connects to the old hose bib. Due to the tight space, a small hacksaw or specialized pipe cutter may be required. Once the pipe is cut, gently pull the old hose bib out from the exterior wall opening. Note any existing insulation or expansion foam that may have been used to seal the opening.

Goal: Detach and remove the faulty hose bib from the plumbing system and wall.
