[AT] Air lines, now Water Lines

[Dean Vinson]

Charlie and Herb, I was just about to make that same recommendation for
freeze proof hydrants.  My dad has one out near the barn and it's been
reliable for a great many years and the lever-action valve is easier and
nicer feeling than a typical rotary valve.

Herb, you don't really need to worry about PEX freezing except for the 
fittings.  The pipe will not fail when it freezes.  Sounds like a good plan 
to me.  If you've got a little extra cash laying around you might look at 
buying some freeze proof hydrants.  Then all of your PEX can stay 
underground, you won't have to worry about UV damage and the water will flow

even in cold weather.
