Fixing an outdoor faucet that has low water pressure or leaks

I was originally having a problem with low water pressure only from this faucet. I was worried that I had some major issue with the plumbing. I found out the problem and it ended up being an easy fix. I hope you enjoy the video.

Thx for posting. We normally have a shut off valve inside the house for each hose bib.

Would have been nice to show how long it took to fill a pail with water in the beginning . Then after the fix ,how long it took to fill same pail. THANK YOU.

Good stuff! Heading to HD and try this now!!

[@The_Book_of_Obadiah]

Good information. Thanks.

Good video. Turn that wrench over so the torque is on the fixed jaw. Just some friendly advise.

[@nealunger]

Thank you for this!

[@EdwardT9]

Exactly my problem, thanks!

[@allensshenanigans348]

No problem!

[@auntiemartha]

Thank you this really helped

[@allensshenanigans348]

Glad it helped!

Congrats on your fix being effective. That was quite a substantial amount of residual water when you were releasing the pressure at the beginning.

[@allensshenanigans348]

Thanks 👍

I have the exact one, but my issue is that the knob won't turn at all. It dsnt budge!! The one on the other side of the house works fine, but we can't get the knob to budge on the other side.
Any advice?

Faucet came apart with ease...I think the entire pipe needs to be replaced

[@zakirmahroof6554]

I've got low pressure i got a boiler
I've changed my tap no luck what can I do

[@allensshenanigans348]

My issue was only at this tap. Check your pressure regulator valve.

Think someone forgot to turn the water off!

[@JediFOMO]

I replaced my PRV and the bibs and my water pressure is lkke 25 psi

[@allensshenanigans348]

There is an adjustment screw on your PRV, but it should have been already set. Try adjusting 1/4 turn at a time and recheck the pressure. Thanks for watching. Support the channel by subscribing.

Can only outside spigots have a loss of water pressure while inside still has good water pressure?

[@allensshenanigans348]

Yes, if it's at the end of the line in your plumbing.

[@danaparish1644]

You don’t lubricate rubber washers with “water.” Use clear silicone plumbers grease. The washers will last and its actually rated for “potable” water.

Why can't you just shut the water off on that line?? Why you gotta shut the water off to the whole house?

[@allensshenanigans348]

There are no individual shut offs for each hose bib. There is only one for the whole house.
