The barrel of the bib split over winter while it was closed, so the break only shows once you open the valve and pressurize it. Close it again and shut the main. The repair means getting at the bib from inside, and the wall may need opening to reach it.

It's a good arrangement, and older houses often have one on the branch inside the wall or the crawlspace. Being able to close and drain that line without shutting the whole house down is the point. If yours has no interior valve, adding one is straightforward work.

Heat is the reliable answer where the building has power, otherwise the lines get drained and the fixtures cleared. Insulation alone doesn't prevent freezing in an unheated space, it only slows it down. Buildings that sit unused all winter are the ones that fail. That goes for the shop buildings out toward Emmett as much as anything in town.

It's usually a worn washer or a packing nut, and it's minor until freezing weather turns the trapped water into a split. A bib that won't quite shut off also can't drain properly, which is the part that actually causes damage.
