My plan to is have an inside valve that can shut it down for the winter, and
then I plan to open all of the outside valves to allow for expansion.
BV.
you don't just have to open the outside valve to allow for expansion,
you also have to be able to drain the line. TOTALLY.
make sure the valve has an auxilary drain valve. or add a cheap hose
connection valve between the outside and the inside valves.
Also maintain a consistant pitch back down into the basement.
