BigJim, the amount of time my hose is outside in the winter and the temp of the water going out, it doesnt freeze the hose, I use camper/RV potable water hose for mine, a little more pliable,kinks more but when that warm water is in it its like jello.
I gotta pump UP and OUT I did use the shower drain yesterday cause I cut the lawn but it usually goes outside into the backyard a good 60' away from my tanks.
Dragon, she still hasnt caught on, its great so far, but ww4 is coming to the devils house thats for sure when she finds out. Oh well, figure she bought them last summer and still in package= fair game LOL
dont open windows in the winter? my bedroom doesnt have windows, just thick lexan and screen with fans, I cant stand no fresh air. all winter wide open and fan on, even on our below zero days, its not cold just lack of warmth.
