Your outside water faucet is unprotected in winter months and will freeze. Outside faucets develop nasty leaks, water line splits, and can cause flooding. All you need to do is shut off the water valve to your outside spigot, then go outside and open the exterior spigot valve and let the majority of the water drain out of the line.
