I hope you're joking, but I think not -

The answer is No, you abviously don't have any clue as to how heating systems and plumbing work. So if you ever want any work doing, get a professional in.

Gardens taps have to come from the mains cold water supply, I don't think plants like red hot water full of chemicals, and if washing the car the car would be dirtier when you finish.

yes the self cutting type would be fine connected to the mains cold water - like the one feeding your washing machine.
