RV water hookup for cold temperature

[3RRL]

Tom,
We've had some exceptionally cold weather at camp this year.
I had some pipes burst and will have to insulate the new ones.
I think I'll go with the electric heat tape and additional insulation. What a pain.
Question for those who know ... would poly pipe be better resistant to bursting as it expands slightly? Just asking.
Thanks,

I am replacing most of the copper in my cabin with pex crimp stuff it expands with the freeze (some times elobows will push off) the black poly pipe will work too. I like the because there isn't any delay to turn water back on like glue and pvc or cpvc
that's why i have sevey thing pitched to low points
with heat trace and your solar system usually aren't a good mix
