Best Answer

A hose bib (or bibb) is a threaded faucet also known as a wall hydrant. The simplest example would be the standard exterior faucet of a residence. They typically can be found with a single valve stem directly before the spout. In colder climates, exterior hose bibs should be installed in-line with an interior wall so that they can be recessed within the wall to provide protection from freezing.

Is there a pump that will convert the garden hose attachment to a recycled water supply from the pool?

From the question I'm not sure if you mean the hose bib that is attached to most pool plumbing for draining. If so that hose bib will discharge water only while the pool's pump is running. The water comming out would not be potable, and not very good for plants. I can't think what else it would be good for.
