going on 9 years and during that time we have had a couple of winters with extended cold spells of dropping to the low 20's for a week or two. But that usually happens during the dark hours with the other 18 hours well above feezing. Never any problems with hose bibs or pipes.
New to TV residents with pools, make sure you run your pool and or jacuzzi during temps below 35 degrees. If you have a controller on your system make sure it is set with winter mode enabled. Then it will run the pumps that need to run and when.
Also related, when doing your landscaping be sure to ask for winter hardy plants. Yes tropical plants will grow just fine here.....until the temp goes below 32, then depending on how low the temps get you could loose them all.
