It would be nice to know what part of the country you live in to know the weather, but I would say if the house isn't very well insulated then anything below say 25 degrees F. I take it your house isn't very new as they are more insulated and shouldn't need a dripping faucet. I have a house built in the early '50's and it lacks some insulation though it does have it in the attic. My pipes are insulated and it has been close to single digits and my pipes have been okay! If any of your faucets or their plumbing, are in an outside wall, I would have them drip. Hope this helps and God bless.
1 should be fine
worry at 0F or below do you have cracks in your foundation?if not your in good shape.if the snow does fly use it to cover your foundation up
This will not keep the toilets from freezing.Better off leaving the T-stat set @ the lowest heat setting,60-65 deg.or you will have to turn off main,open all valves,put antifreeze in the toilets...
