I'm concerned that it would freeze when it gets 10 below zero - the water is right - how does it keep from breaking the line? The old standby has the water valve itself quite a ways back so it's away from the wall.
Great video. I have a leaking spigot that I need to replace on back side of my house coming from under my kitchen sink for the backyard garden hose. I seriously thought of going with this product until I read all of the reviews on Amazon. Consensus is they are hard to disconnect and they fail after about four years if they last that long. So I'll be going with a traditional frost free type of spigot instead of this. I don't want my wife to have to fight it to disconnect it or reconnect it to water the garden or wash out and refill her birdbath.
Looks great but there are a LOT of houses where this goes through the brick. Would be nice to see you do an installation through brick or any mason type .....
Thank you! I like PEX B, PEX a with the expansion fittings I just had a bad experience with leaks on those. I’ll make a future video explaining why. Please stay tuned! 👍🏽🙏🏽😊
@FixThisHouse Thanks! I like PEX B too. It does not give plastic taste in the water, more rigid and stronger - can withhold more pressure/PSI. Some contractors like PEX A, because it's more flexible and easier to work with, but it leaches chemicals into the water - not healthy.

This doesn’t eliminate the freezing concerns at all.
