It never even occured to me to shut off the water to the inside of the house.But that would be the safe way to do it i guess. My shut off is in the garage. Garage isnt heated but i have good insulation in all of the garage walls and the atic. Garage always stays warm enough on cold nites where it never gets probably in the 50s or 60s at nite.If it gets any colder than it has been i think ill turn the water off to the house. Only thing that could freeze i think is the two outside faucets. Shutoff valve in garage turns those two lines off i think plus all water to inside of house. Only thing that stays on is the water line going to the irrigation system.
