IMG_0336.jpg For various reasons one spigot on the back of my brick home is rather low to the ground. Attaching a hose is a bit of a chore. There is also a leak so I am between having it removed and new washer put on or replacing with something that will help the problem. Some of our spigots are an a 45 degree angle and that might help.

I've researched what is out there in terms of different angled spouts etc. In TN we really don't need frost proof as we've never had a problem.

Any help or referrals are appreciated.

You could put a new washer on and then take the spigot off and put it back on at an angle. If you have
room to move it up higher you'll have a hole to fill in. They also make elbow and 45 degree fittings that
fit right on your spigot and then its easier to put a hose on.
