There is very little to keep the cold out in the hot water heater cavity. The hot water heater slides into the trailer. The heater is insulated to keep the hot water hot, but the lines coming out the back are not insulated, one would not think they would freeze there, but on an off cycle, maybe.
I think 32 degrees is the freezing point previous hot water, or cold. I have my furnace set on 45 degrees in K.C., so I hope that works, but I drained all my water lines there.
Back to Wayne's post, I am not familiar with your unit, but I would try and access the back of your H.W. heater and check the lines there. Maybe add insulation there.
You might get a remote read thermostat, take the lead and fish it to various locations to test the temperatures there, that would give you an idea of the Cold migration into your unit at those points.
