I'd just use the foam insulation and replace it as needed after UV deterioration. It's relatively inexpensive.
To totally protect against freezing, you'd have to wrap the pipe with electrical heating tape.

We had a place that had PVC outside and during the last major freeze, broke.. I replaced it with PEX. Now I find out that due to UV light deteriorization, PEX cannot be used outside. I thought of using the foam insulation but that, too has UV deteriorization problems.
Is there a simple way to solve this situation? I'd rather not rerun the line, if I don't have to.
