I just leave a faucet drip. My water hose has never frozen. I've been down to at least 20 in Crystal River, FL.
Of course you have to have your gray tank valve open if you leave a faucet drip.

Tom, a dripping faucet will keep your fresh hose from freezing, but the very slow trickle through the stinky will freeze it up. A 3" icycle. Want to wake up to a n overflowing gray tank and the rig flooded? How about the waste of the water? Conservation of resources is the responsibility of us all. It takes electricity to provide the water, then to treat it.
Please use your fresh tank and pump, you will always have water without wasting or concern of freezing anything.
