- In this video I show you how to extend or add an additional water spigot to the other side of the lawn. We use PVC so the installation is semi-permanent and does not have unsightly long hoses and no chance of hoses with leaks and replacements. It can still be disconnected for winterization.

Thanks for sharing! Can you also share a link to the short extension hose that's connected to the original faucet?
Clean
Thanks
Can you bury PVC in the ground with no issues or do you have to do anything special if you do? Nice video, really appreciate it. Got to see if I can figure out the stuff you used in the video now that I am on my computer and not my phone.
Sorry no idea. I have never attempted to bury it.
You can bury it, but if it is not next to the foundation, you may want to wrap it with a metal wire so you can locate it with a metal detector if you ever want to dug in that area. Or, at the very least, draw a VERY detailed map. You also may want to check your frost line. If it is buried deep enough, it may save you from it cracking when it freezes.
Nice work and good video. I will do the same!
Thanks!
Nice work! Do you leave the original faucet valve open or closed during non winter seasons? Thanks
I leave it open.
what size threaded pvc fittings you use ? and how many exactly ?
1 yr later I am thinking to do the same. How is it holding up? In after thought would you do anything different? Thanks for posting.
No issues at all. So much so that this season I have 100% only used the new faucet connection since it’s in the middle (more convenient placement)
@@LifeHacksExtreme At this point I have followed your lead and added a new bib closer to the pool and back yard. Thanks again
What size/type of pvc pipe are you using?
3/4 inch
@@LifeHacksExtreme it looks like you are stepping down from 3/4 to 1/2 right after the flexible hose. am I missing something?
@@chincaI zoomed in on the pipe at 2:20 and it clearly says 1/2
Can't see what the first thing was, too far from camera and name was covered
The Y connector that is connected to faucet? You mean this? a.co/d/5StbDcP
