Can the water hose box let the water hose stay hooked up to the faucet or do you have to disconnect from the faucet to keep it stored?

Depends on weather where you leave. It does not cover the connection to the hose outside the box. I just disconnect that for freezes and leave the box as is. It simple to reconnect.

yes, it can, the problem I've had is the connection to the water spigot, this area easily springs leaks when stressed and it's stressed every time you roll up the hose into the box -

Yes, you can stay connect if your location of hose box is close to the faucet. I don't keep mind connected especially during the winter months

It can be left hooked up over the spring, summer and fall seasons, however, like all hoses it must be unhooked for the winter. I live in the Midwest, you cannot leave hoses attached over the cold winters. The box stays outside, never gets weathered and has stayed in great condition.

When you disconnect an accessory using the quick connect, it does not stop the flow of water. Attaching an accessory such as a spray nozzle will stop the flow. You can do what I do and connect a Dramm Heavy-Duty shut off valve to the end of the hose and then attach the quick connect to that which easily allows you to turn on and off the flow of water. I just checked and that shutoff valve is not nearly as cheap as they were when I ordered mine. The Dramm watering wands include the brass shutoff and they work well if you're looking to water plants or gently wash a vehicle. I hope this helps!

The same thing happened to us. When I had a plumber here for other work, I asked him if he could try to get it off. No luck. I guess it's best not to leave it on your hose for too long or else it will become a permanent attachment.

No. You have to manually shut off the water. I have a spigot on the front and back of the house so when I move the hose and reel it is a simple hook up with these. I think these are a must have item if you move your hose often.

I don't use the spigot, I just have mine staked in the garden to hang the hose on. I looked and it doesn't look like you can easily remove the spigot but it's not really noticeable under the hose hanging on it. I do love the hanger, it looks good and is pretty sturdy.

The rear of the holder has key hole slots, so if you can install screws or some other type of anchor into the concrete wall or stucco then it would hang from those. I have mine installed in the garage where I keep the hose for winter, so it hangs on its keyholes from screws installed in a wood spacer between two studs. I have about one hundred and fifty feet of hose on it, and I keep the hose nozzels in the compartment.

Ocassionally the hose may pop off. Just push the hose back on so the water can drain where you have the hose directed. I love this outdoor sink. I've had it for several years and wouln't know what to do without it.

Unlikely. You cannot disconnect the head on the faucet . There is no thread . It is not like an old fashioned faucets. There may be a fitting avaialble to use. Advise contacting company directly. They were extremely helpful when we received a wrong part. Corrected it promptly. Great faucet. Company stands behind their products. They may have something else that works.

I can get the hose onto my faucet but when I take it off the pressure of the water squirts out and I get wet. You might want to try to get an attachment with a smaller one end and a larger opening on the other end. You might want to go to Lowes or Home Depot and take the hose with you.

No. That's the point of the lock...to keep a hose from attaching and using the water. It will need to be unlocked and removed before a hose can be attached.

Sure. Ours is connected to the hose for the pull-out kitchen faucet. There is a spring-based retaining ring connector that slides down, enabling you to pull the connector off the stem of the kitchen faucet. Then the other end of the connector screws off the hose. There is probably a You Tube video that shows you what to do...

Yes, simply zip tie the box to your water pipe, wrap the 'antenna' wires around the same pipe and zip tie them to keep them from unraveling. Now here's the tricky part: plug it in. :)

Yes, there is a piece inside the storage box that connects to the hose. There is also a small connection hose (about 2 feet long) that comes with the box/storage unit that connects to the spigot. The small connection hose is brown in color if that helps.

You have to squeeze the handle for spray option.. It doesn't pull out either just stretches due to metal coil. I love the faucet but it sounds like you need one with spray head that can stay engaged without holding it:)

You can leave it turned on. I really liked the faucet - until we couldn't turn it off one day. After about two years of use it simply did not turn off again. I see there have been other instances of this happening with other purchasers. It may have something to do with what type of water you use, or it may just self-destruct no matter what, so beware.

Yes slice the hose and it will come off, or tug and wiggle and it will disconnect.

There are two parts. You must detach the hose to use the faucet, but the mounting head that still remains on the faucet works just like a regular faucet head.
