Reply to comment by its8up in Electric water heater for outdoor shop, supply with garden hose. Any concerns? by syncopator

Now this is the sort of common sense stuff I should have already considered! Of course pex. I even have some.

I’ll still disconnect since it will rarely be used but pex solves the suitability issue with garden hose.

Thanks!

If you have an air compressor, with a few fittings, you could blow out the pex line when done. Between burying it and blowing it clear, should be minimal likelihood of freezing solid.
