At the end of each fall, I disconnect my hose from the frost-proof hose bib. Each spring when I reconnect the hose and turn on the water there is a drip from the handle of the hose bib. It stops when I turn the water off. As the temperature rises the drip seems to stop and I keep the water on at the hose bib and control the flow (on/off) with a manual timer.
Is this a problem with the frost-proof hose bib, or normal? If not normal, what should I try and replace/
