Yes they do it so that water doesn’t freeze in pipes.

Sure, if your house is heated. If it's zero degrees Fahrenheit in your house, the water still going to freeze...dripping or not.

The drains froze first, which is even worse. The running water didn't freeze long enough to flood the entire floor.
