Why not just have a hot water spigot plumbed to your exterior?

Thank you very much for your reply, Trebruchet!

"Why not just have a hot water spigot plumbed to your exterior?"

My landlord (I rent) wouldn't agree to that. Which is OK, my kitchen sink is just a few feet from my sliding glass door to the yard.

Is there some undersink fixture I can ask a plumber to install to meet my need?

Your landlord wouldn't appreciate you mucking about with the plumbing at all then. There isn't anything you can do here that wouldn't be a Rube Goldberg mass of a half dozen potentially leaky brass ''adapters'' from your shutoff valve. Garden hoses are different sizes than undersink shutoff valves and the ONLY way to do this correctly messes with the home's permanent piping to create a permanent hot tap.

Thank you very much for your reply, hollysprings!

Bummer. I know he'll let me (I've got a disability it accommodates) install the new faucet, and if it could be more elegant than you say (yikes, "a Rube Goldberg mass of a half dozen potentially leaky brass ''adapters'' from your shutoff valve"!) probably that too but you're right. Perhaps I'll just run the hose to my bathroom sink instead.

Curious. What do you do with hot water outside?

@cal_quail:
I've got carpal tunnel, and I presoak very hard-to-clean pots (in fabric softener and automatic dishwasher detergent) so I'm capable of cleaning the pots.

A DW with a potscrubber cycle would be a better additon to talk your landlord into. It would add value to the rental.

Thank you very much for your reply, hollysprings!

Perhaps I should look into that, however I can't imagine that the extreme baking (a long story) I do could be cleaned by a DW with a potscrubber cycle.

coyote2 - you'd be surprised what a good DW can do these days!. Also, can't you just soak the pots in the sink or on your counter instead of taking them outside?

Thank you very much for your reply, weissman!

The pots, and my hands, are so bad it takes weeks of multiple soakings.

Using the bathroom wont be so bad; I will need a longer hose tho since the 2 I hook together leak in between and can't have that inside!

lol..... Rube Goldberg

With your issue I suspect many options have been tried. But am going to suggest water in pans on stove to a boil or in microwave if glass. I always use water in my pans as soon as they come off the stove (less the food). This cleans the leftover immediately.
