From: "Antti Kurenniemi" 

My only problem is, that my house is an old one and there is danger of
plumbing freezing when it gets as cold as it is now. All pipes outside the
house (to the well and the sewer) are electrically heated, but there is a 2
meter stretch below the house that isn't, and it's a real b*tch to melt if
it freezes (it's difficult to get at). I keep water running in the bathroom
at these temps, but sometimes I forget and then it's waiting for warmer
weather -time .
