    Made me chuckle, don’t know why I watched the video cause I know nothing about plumbing but I enjoyed it and learned as well. My comment would be having the hole through the wall directly above the electric socket in the cupboard, so if the joint did leak the water would get into the socket and I know that’s really bad 😳. Great video 👍👍.

    See if you can find an Oras frost proof garden valve (part number 431415), it’s what we use here in Finland. It moves the valve body inside the house, and thus drains out the outside tap every time you shut it, so no remembering to drain it out in the fall. Like everything Oras makes it’s probably going to outlive us all (I’ve never had to replace one, and they’ve made the same tap at least since the 80s), it’s rebuildable, only issue is that they’re extremely proud of it, so it’s priced accordingly. 😂
