Both of my spigots would “shower” even with hose nozzle full open. Now, I am using the collapsible hoses that do naturally “back pressure” a bit as they collapse. I simply assumed the spigot valves were basically check valves that failed. So far that analysis seems to stand in my situation. Also as said I had a lot of leakage at the spigot while using the hose which is not the case any longer. My valves were 2019 installs - they don’t make em like they used to.
