The top things to do to prevent pipes freezing before the temperature drops is:
Insulate the pipes
If you can get to all the spaces your pipes run through then use insulation to prevent the temperature getting too low.

Keep the heating on, but set the thermostat to low – low enough to save you a few dollars but high enough to stop the pipes freezing
Keep your heating on
