[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 454167, member: 1607"] As you say, as a tenant it wouldn't be wise to pay for permanent supply for something that may not be used or that in my opinion should be the landlords responsibility, if directly connected into the fixed wiring supply. I would probably think the external socket with a lead could be the most economical first option. But garden hose is a daft idea. Better with some PVC conduit, ridged or flexible such as: [URL="https://www.toolstation.com/shop/p49964?table=no"]https://www.toolstation.com/shop/p49964?table=no[/URL] or [URL="https://www.screwfix.com/p/tower-conduit-heavy-gauge-20mm-x-3m-length-black/7980p"]https://www.screwfix.com/p/tower-conduit-heavy-gauge-20mm-x-3m-length-black/7980p[/URL] assuming a suitable route with appropriate fixings is available. An external weatherproof double socket could well be a benefit for the landlord as well, and they may be willing to contribute to such an improvement to the property. Get a quote for a double socket for starters and ask if the landlord would pay half with you? Doc H. [/QUOTE]
