Unlike homes built to withstand and function where freezing is an every year ritual, it is not the usual case here in Austin. Long story short, the water provider is about to shut the entire system down and restore service sometime tomorrow. My home does not have a low water point drain to completely drain my pipes so i am wondering if there is any chance that I can dodge frozen lines in walls or attic if I turn the service off at the main meter and open all of the cold water taps on my faucets? I do have an electric water tank (heater) and will turn it off if I do block my supply at the main meter to hopefully not burn out the heating elements.
Thanks for any thoughts
