Chip, when enough cold weather has passed that you're confident it's ok with the thermostats insulated (or not) would you post back? I'm going to have to replace my hose next year (small drip I can't get rid of at the connection) so will have to reapply the heat tape. I'm sure others would like to know, too.
Thanks and good luck. If access were that difficult I'd do the same as you, wait and see.
