So I run a hose from my house to my garage to fill my drum barrels...I got my R.O. filter in my garage too.
I'm worried with the snow season here coming up that my hose will freeze if I run it. It takes a good 3 hours to fill my 55 gallon drums running thru my R.O. filter. Will that running water freeze? The hose line in my basement has padded insulation around it when it gets close to the wall to the outside. That might help.
I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't risk the water line repairs from my hose and start filling my drum barrels with my R.O. filter in my basement and when I water my plants use a sump pump from the barrels in my basement out a window to my garage, straight to the plants.
