AWC freezing

[btb72]

Quick question for you. I was wanting to setup a AWC from my garage to my tank (in dead middle of the house). Two story house with a crawl space and the only way I figured to get it accomplished would to run the lines through the crawl space. I live in central Kentucky so don’t have to worry about it getting too cold (single digits is the lowest it’ll ever get) but still cold enough to freeze. Is there anyway to accomplish this? Or any tips thanks.

My first thought would be to insulate the hose/tubing you use with pipe insulation.

Seawater freezes at about 28.4F according to Google. Not sure what temps you see

If the tubing will be running parallel to your joists you could put it up close to the subfloor so it's above the insulation (assuming you have insulation between your floor joists).

I need to check that out. It would be ideal.
