I need to re-plumb (and to re-locate one of) my two existing outside spigots to take them off the water softener, and I want to add a third one in another location. My basement is heated and the existing spigots have been trouble-free even though they are not of the frost-free type. One of them is brass and is supplied by PVC actually sticking out through a frame wall just a bit, and the other is older, heavier and attached to galvanized pipe coming through a concrete-block wall.
I will be plumbing these spigots with PVC, but I am thinking about using a short piece of galvanized pipe to go through the walls ...
Do I really need to spend the money for frost-free spigots?
