As for freezing pipes - my house is 110 years old, and the best investment I made was in foam insulation a couple of years ago. The power was out for over six hours last night and the house only cooled off 3 degrees! (it helped firm up the structure as well)

Keep in mind last night was a (relatively) mild night by mid December standards. If it were say 5 or 10 degrees out you would of cooled down way faster in 6 hours. What was it when it went out maybe in the forties outside?
