What good are low point drains?
What good are low point drains on a trailer that is supposed to be good for 0 degrees? My drains are solid, slightly flexible, plastic pipe. It seems like they’re going to freeze and bust at anythin...

Just put a sleeve of foam, like the ones you put on your pipes sticking out the ground for those leaving in harsh winter countries.
This is what I did, put foam pipe insulation on the low point drains, and the fresh tank drain hose. I used a few wraps of electrical tape above and below the exposed valves. to secure the foam.
My FW is supposed to be 4 season, but obviously not below 0 capable. I've used it down to 20 degrees with no issue. It heats easily, is well insulated, but these drains hanging down do need attention, and the outdoor shower disabled on my rig, as it is out of the heated basement area.
