We live on sandy ground, and have had buried line freeze in 30 degree weather. I know nobody else has that trouble, but if anything can go wrong with home systems, it will. At least for me.

Dripping the faucets is a cure-all for freezes around here - but beware the gremlins that turn the faucets back off.

My theory is the neoprene washer in the faucet slowly relaxes, expanding, once the drip is initiated. Every faucet I drip turns back off in about ten minutes. I always check back to see if the faucet is still dripping, but I may be unique in my troubles, there, too.
