fill the water softener with brine and it will not freeze. the
dishwasher and washer are more problematic. Even blowing them out can

There's yer answer. Run each machine, empty, time the rinse cycle.
Close to the end of the rinse cycle, dump in a canister of table
salt. This will fill the pump with (home-made) brine.
