Thank you Sir you are a life saver. absolutely brilliantly explained and worked perfectly. especially the Nuances which made all the different. God Bless you

[@ck5575]

Wow, you da man in step by step explanations... Way more then just 'do it this way'... BUT explaining the 'Why' at each step. Excellent instruction, and speaking clearly and loud. So many instructors out there are like talking to themselves. A big thanks.

[@agostinodibella9939]

Jeff, I like how you installed the screw in adapter first, so the next person who has to change the valve doesn’t have to worry about soldering.

[@jeffostroff]

Yes, I wish all plumbers would do that for the rest of us

[@mkate7839]

I do a lot of my own repairs at home. Widowed and no kids to help, so I get a lot of jobs to do that I've never done before. Thank you for this video. I have a 'quarter turn' type outdoor faucet. Today it was leaking so badly I could fill an outdoor rain barrel in about an hour and a half! That's a bad leak! I was hoping to find information on how to replace my type of faucet, and only saw older type faucet videos, until I found yours! Yeah!!! I'll be working on my faucet in the morning, and I won't need to do any soldering, but only replace the quarter turn portion on mine. Since I had never done this before, I wanted to be sure I found a video that gave me all the information I needed to do it right. Thanks so much! I subscribed as I have to do repairs on all sorts of things from time to time, and it helps to know where to go to find the information. I may even change out my other faucets as the house is 35 years old and I imagine the faucets could use some attention after all this time. One question -- Do you have videos on determining if a faucet is leaking behind a wall? I am not sure if I have an issue, only that the water sounds really strong in my kitchen when I turn the faucet on outside. NO signs of water, but I get concerned that there may be a leak and I can't see it. I'd love to see a video on determine the location of a leak of this kind. Thanks again!!😌

[@thegreatcesarluna2975]

Thank you. It was my first time doing this.. I was wondering why my the hose Bibb wasn’t coming off after I heated it… turns out all the water needs to be completely cut off. Good to know I’ll try again and hopefully I get a better turn out! Thank you for this educational video 👍

Hey Jeff. I found your channel during your coverage of collapse at Surfside (great videos). And lo and behold, I need a new spigot so came you your channel! Cross promotion! Looking forward to more deals, more info on Surfside etc in the future.

[@jeffostroff]

Thanks for coming back for more!

[@barleyhops38]

@@jeffostroff I did, and still can't find the answer to my question though. I have screwed on a 2 way to my spigot and cannot get it off the threads. I own a brick house, and that hose bibb/spigot type has the back of the spigot IN THE mortar. I haven't called a plumber yet as was researching what to do. Is best way to know to send photos to a plumber? I wish I could know how to get that 2 way thingy uncrewed from the spigot but another neighbor made it worse when he forced it even more righty tighty!

[@jeffostroff]

@BarleyHops The 1st thing I would try is a pair of channel lock pliers because they can Clamp down onto the hose nut That is Stuck on that thread. And somebody with enough strength should be able to loosen that. If that doesn't work you can try applying heat by putting a torch on it for just a few seconds and see if there's any expansion that. Then after That I would try PB Blaster Which is A penetrating lubricant. WD40 will not work here because it is not a lubricant although many people think that it is. If that fails then you can get a Dremel and try to gently slice off the hose nut just cut a couple of slits into it enough that you can pry off the rest of it and get it off of the threads without cutting all the way through to the threads. It's all of Those efforts fail to produce the desired outcome, then you will have to bring in a plumber And you Me end up having to chisel into the wall.

Good video. Thanks. I'm still looking for this same operation but with the pipe in a block wall with no access from inside. Have to chip away the concrete on the outside and redo?

[@thanhdang2546]

My plumber put the threaded opening of the ball valve like what you have directly over the 1/2-inch copper pipe and solder them together. Is the joint strong enough to withstand the torque from opening and closing of the valve over time? I am afraid of a catastrophic failure of the joint. Thanks in advance.

[@jeffostroff]

Yes the solder should hold up. I would make sure the pipe is not wiggling it may need to be strapped tot h wall if there is any movement

[@BobsWoodStuff]

@@jeffostroff Thanks, that is the one I bought. Because of your video I was able to get the old soldered joint off and solder on the new fitting. The store didn't have a hose bibb in that size, so I ended up using a sillcock. Is there any downside to that, other than the flange?

[@Smedley61]

Awesome video! We've got hose bibs that appear to be soldered to a copper stub sticking out from our stucco home, unanchored. I'm assuming I should be able to find something that will allow me to anchor the pipe to the home after I fit the threaded adapter and new hose bib.

[@jeffostroff]

If the pipe is just sliding in and out of a hole in the wall, then after you solder on the new spigot, just get a tube of PL Adhesive 3X on the paint aisle, and fill in the gap all the way around the air gaps in there the pipe comes through the wall, then by next day when it cures hard, it won't move at all.

[@billarenz2719]

Hey Jeff as long as you already shut the water off from the valve in the yard why didn't you replace the other water shut off and replace it with a 1/4 turn ball valve.?

[@jeffostroff]

I would have but the fix was simply turning the nut 1/4 turn.

Great shout out on the dripping faucet, that is what brought me here! Lol 1. I have used white bread (no crust) to hold back water. Is this method a good or bad one? Keep in mind I do not show an entire slice up there, just a bit so it can dissolve.

[@jeffostroff]

Jimmy we used the bread trick a few times, it works great, just remember to flush the bread out of the pipe afterwards.

[@jimmymeetsworld464]

@@jeffostroff Wish I could show a photo of b4 n after but I ended up using Sharkbites for a no weld replacement and 2ft of 1" copper tubing. And I know you might have those in another video but I just wanted to let you know that your welding techniques are fantastic, I just ended up going with this. What is your opinion on those slip type fittings? Feet piping replacement ended up being a great job. Everything is watertight and fits perfectly. Best part if something goes wrong, I just get my horse shoe release clip out and just adjust, replace or fix the issue. Quick fix. Jimmy

Hey my dad and are tryimg to remove a soldered hose bib but steam is coming out of the spigot and the seal does not seem to losen. We already tried vacuuming out the water for 2-10 minutes. How long should we keep the shop vac on to completely drain it?

[@jeffostroff]

If the water is still running when you stop vacuuming, you'll have to try to open up some faucets, find a lower spot in the house where there is another valve. But if that does not help try shutting off the water at the curb, or try the bread trick, which we cover in this video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXvbeJamrsd5rNk

i repiped my house and ran 400 feet of copper through the attic and have a lot of practice sweating over 160 joints. i learned from a master plumber to keep water away, take white bread and stuff it in the pipe to keep the joint dry. in your case i would tske a reciprocating saw and cut the front part of the spigot off to gain access to use the bread trick. it is faster than vacuuming out the water. good video though

Sometimes they are 1" sometimes 3/4". I believe that normally your main water line coming into your house is 1 inch and sometimes they will step that down to a three quarter inch connection for your hose bib, and sometimes they don't
