Hi Maureen - I am using the clear, less flexible line and have for ~8 yrs -
I have seen the more flexible latex line and decided the stiff line running
at a downward slope with no sagging loops was better as no moisture will
collect in the line - I have not had a freeze up yet, except for not
keeping the the ice dome build up broke open in ~15 F extended periods -
now I tap the ice dome to break it daily in real cold periods
