Why do I need this? 🤔

These winter essentials are insulated to trap heat and help ensure frigid air doesn't reach your faucet and travel up through the pipes. Made of a sturdy, waterproof fabric, ArtiGifts Pro Outdoor Faucet Covers also keep excess moisture away from your spigots — because what does moisture do when it's freezing outside? It freezes! Ice puts pressure on your pipes, which can lead to ruptures. Not good.

I bought some faucet covers just like these at the insistence of my local hardware store owner. I'd told him I was traveling and wanted to know if there were any precautions I should take aside from keeping my heat on and turning my water off (which you should absolutely do if you'll be away from home!). He recommended spigot socks, and seeing as they seemed like a quick fix, I happily purchased them.

Now, when I tell you that installing them is easy — if you can even call it installing — I mean it. All you do is slip the opening over your faucet, twist the drawstring around the cover a few times and pull to tighten for a secure fit.

What reviewers say 💬

Over 8,500 Amazon customers swear by these faucet covers for protecting their pipes during the winter.

Pros 👍

"Lifesaver," wrote one relieved user. "Thank goodness for this thing. My faucets stick out too far for the regular hard plastic covers to do any good. This, with a little foam insulation around the base of the faucet, saved my house this winter. When my neighbors were dealing with frozen pipes, we were sitting pretty."

"This is exactly what I was looking for and will help prevent any busted pipes this winter," shared another impressed shopper. "I like the fact that I could tighten it around the pipe and there wasn't any space between the cover, pipe and wall. Also, I was able to use the dangling cord to wrap everything again so it will stay in place."

"I had no issues in our Dallas deep freeze this year with these on my outside faucets!" exclaimed a third. "We were well below freezing for four days straight and these held up well!"

Cons 👎

"Best purchase ever," raved a generally satisfied buyer. "[My] only recommendation [is] to tie it tightly, as the wind will blow it off if you do not."

"They've lasted two winters and [are] still in great condition," wrote a final fan. "Would buy again, just wish they came in different colors so we could have ones that blend into the siding color."
