How cold is too cold?

Looking to save some money on your heating bill?  Do you drop the temperature of your home or cottage while you are away?  With the cold weather upon us I want to make sure everyone is careful to not let your pipes freeze.  While you are away, make sure your home/cottage doesn't fall below 55 degrees.  Anything lower than 55 degrees, and you can run the risk of frozen pipes which could lead to a very costly repair!

If you suspect you may be dealing with frozen pipes, the American Red Cross has a nice write up on what to do:
