Arctic package and water lines
My trailer has the arctic package which insulates the belly. The only exposed water lines are the two drains, and the tank drain. I have not winterized yet as I need to take one more trip to check out...

I have used the foam pipe insulation on my 3 drain pipes, with good results. I would recommend using the furnace, rather than electric heat, due to moving air/heat into the belly as designed.
Tip: I used larger than needed rubber/foam pipe insulation, and wrapped it to fit with electrical tape.

Thanks, that was what I was looking for. I just want to be proactive, as I don't expect it to get too cold, the highs each day is in the 40's, and all but the outdoor shower, and two drains are inside. Going to have the water heater on electric as well since I want that weight to be there when I test drive it. Other than some clothes, and the refer being empty, it will be the same as when we traveled earlier this year, then I can go ahead and winterize it. I have yet to empty a propane tank, so I can purge the tanks using the furnace, and start next year off with two new full tanks. I will probably run an electric in addition, just to be on the safe side.
