Consider buying anti-freezing products such as pipe sleeves, heat tape or heating cables, and install them on exposed water pipes. Leave faucets with exposed pipes open and dripping. This will keep the water flowing, and moving water freezes less easily than standing water.
We had the same problem. The drain in the shower even froze one year! We hung a small fan into the crawl space which moved some warm air in to it. 10 years ago we had an addition put on and now have a full basement and no more problems. Good luck.
