    Leaky outdoor hose/spigot connection
    If my hose connection at the spigot sprays water everywhere, do I have to replace the whole spigot? It seems that when I connect the hose end to the spigot, I don't get too many rotations. When I turn on the faucet, water sprays everywhere from the hose/spigot connection. Did the winter freeze break/warp the spigot at the threaded connection?

    Do you have a vacuum breaker on the end?
