u/Foreign-Setting-8624

I’m trying to remove my tub spout and initially thought it was a slip-on type, but I’m not seeing any set screw underneath.

Now I’m thinking it may be a threaded (screw-on) spout, but I want to confirm before applying more force and risking damage to the pipe in the wall.

Current situation:

• No visible set screw underneath
• I can see the pipe inside the spout
• There’s a small gap near the wall
• I lightly tried turning it counterclockwise but didn’t apply much force

Questions:

• Does this sound like a threaded spout?
• Is it safe to remove by turning counterclockwise?
• Any tips to avoid damaging the pipe behind the wall?

Appreciate any guidance!
