    Someone should invent a system to purge a house's water pipes for such a situation. I'll take 5% of profits for suggesting the idea.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Such systems have existed forever. Although regular residential properties might not have the lower and upper valves and suitable plumbing designed for it. Estates meant only to be used for a part of the year, usually the summer obviously, and left cold during winters may have been built so, especially in the past, unless they have automatic heating keeping either the whole building or just the pipes above 0C. The latter solution is increasingly popular (because it's so easy), but like Ryll said, if power disappears for days during a cold period, then the owner will become familiar with filling insurance claim forms.
