How are water supply lines attached to a faucet?

After you attach a faucet to the sink, you can attach the water supply lines that will eventually be connected to the shut-off valves on the main water supply pipes. Regardless of what your supply line is made of, it probably uses a coupling nut to secure it to the faucet tailpiece.

Is there a garden hose for the utility sink?

I hooked up a cheap dirty water pump in a old 8G plastic fermenter that goes under the utility sink drain. It has a float so when it get full it discharges via a garden hose to the utility sink in the house. Since I have a propane HWH as part of my brew setup I have both hot and cold water in the garage.

Is there a way to run a hose to a kitchen sink?

That may be a very good alternative to getting an on demand water heater for the garage. Thank you. Just put a splitter (y) on you’re outside hosebib then run a short hose to the sink and you still have a outlet for your hose. I use a cheap plastic utility sink out in the garage so I don’t have to clean anything in the house.

Can you leave an outside faucet on with a hose attached?

Yes! Water that remains in the hose and in the faucet itself will expand as the water gets frozen; this causes the water to expand and damage the pipes that connect to that exterior faucet. That actually happened to someone I know this past December.

Can a hot water line be connected to an outdoor sink?

I connected my outdoor hose to the sink for the water. A line can be connected to both the hot water handle and the cold water handle, though obviously there will be no hot water. In my setup, I only have one line running to the cold water handle.
