A freeze frame to protect an outdoor faucet and hose when the outside temperature dips below freezing is disclosed. The frame comprises a first box and a second box. The two boxes are held-together using one or more spring-loaded hinge. The first box has a cavity and a pair of padlock tabs at its upper portion. The second box comprises a cavity and a pair of lock hasps at its lower portion. The cavity of each box forms a hole, which allows the hose to remain connected to the hose bib. The frame further comprises a closed-cell foam gasket with one or more mounting flanges. The gasket is configured to mount the second box to the dwelling wall using one or more fasteners. The first box is configured to cover and secure the water pipe connection surrounded by the second box.

A nozzle cap includes a cap body defining a first body end and a second body end, the cap body defining a circumferential wall extending from the first body end towards the second body end; an antenna cover circumferentially overlapping a portion of the circumferential wall, the antenna cover defining an inner cover surface facing the circumferential wall, an antenna cavity defined between the inner cover surface and the portion of the circumferential wall; and an antenna printed circuit board (“PCB”) strip positioned within the antenna cavity, the antenna PCB strip secured in facing engagement with the inner cover surface.
