PlumbingMeasurement & Estimation2MildHomeowner$ implied

Homeowner needs to upgrade an undersized and restricted water supply line to maximize garden hose flow rate, but lacks plumbing knowledge and wants to avoid flow-restricting spigots.

Spigots reduce inner diameter and restrict flow, and the user doesn't know the best piping configuration to avoid restrictions.
