As lazy_gardens said, you might have frost-proof faucets.

Outside spigots often do not have additional shutoffs, and hopefully you do have frost-proof valves. However, for frost-proof valves to work, the valve seat has to be in a conditioned space. If this is not the case, and you do have access to the pipes, one could always have shutoffs installed.

I have an outdoor faucet at my garage. Long pipe coming up out of the ground with a pump type handle. Asked the seller how he shut it off. He never did. I can use it all winter & I'm in Northern Virginia. Gets pretty darn cold here & this will be my 8th winter & it's still fine!

What you have is called a yard hydrant and it functions sort of like a frost-free spigot as the valve mechanism is way down below ground level where it is warmer. As long as the hydrant is tall enough that the valve sits below the frost line you will never have a freezing problem. But that is a different situation from what the OP is inquiring about.

Gotcha!! Thanks for the info! :)

Or your house might be like ours without any shutoffs. We had them installed after our first winter, which was our home's 92nd winter. Peace of mind for my husband.

Thanks so much for all the helpful comments. I'm pretty sure I have the frost free faucets as described. I will check with an expert to make sure. Thanks again!
