Garden hoses and nozzles

We go through a lot of garden hoses and nozzles here in our back yard garden. It's got to be the heat. If we don't drain the hose after using it, the water will be extremely hot after the hose filled with water has baked in the 90-100 degree sun. Plus, heat makes water expand, causing hoses to split.

Even when we turn off the water and drain the hoses, the hoses and nozzles seem to have too short a life. Maybe we need to buy commercial grade hoses?
