To shut off water to an outdoor faucet:
- Locate the Shut-off Valve: Find the shut-off valve inside your home that controls the water flow to the outdoor faucet. It is usually located in the basement or near the main water supply.
- Turn the Valve Off: Turn the shut-off valve clockwise until it is fully closed.
- Drain the Faucet: Open the outdoor faucet to drain any remaining water from the pipes. This step is crucial to prevent freezing in cold weather.
