Winterizing a jetted bath tub.
From what I can see, all lines slope down to the intake point so I'm guessing the tub is self draining (including pump) which should mean I don't need to do anything. Is this correct, or is there more...

Are you leaving the heat on to the house at say 55 or so or are you turning that off?
You could run some heat tape into the area. If used indoors in an enclosed area, the electricity use shouldn't be that bad through the winter. A heat tape with integrated thermostat probably wouldn't cycle on that much. The temp would have to drop down, then the heat tape would warm the space up quick and cycle it back off.
I lived in a trailer for a year and ran heat tape from the ground up into the trailer. We were just starting out in life and maintaining two residences for work reasons, so money was tight. I don't recall that electric bill being too awful high.
