Ok, & thank you to everyone. So if I were to place two trays of water at varying temperatures within the freezer (at the same level) , which would freeze first?

no, it is not true, cold water freezes kwiker

The water heater is fed straight away from the chilly water line, so the two structures recieve equivalent water rigidity. as a strategies because of the fact the warm water line attaining the comparable temperature because of the fact the chilly water line, specific, based on the insulation, the warm water pipe, if no water is drawn by using it, will finally attain ambient temperature. The community radio station has been advising people to head away their cabinet doors open to permit warmth to get to the wall the place the pipes are, yet i'm form of taking this with a grain of salt. that is actual that any little bit facilitates, yet whilst cabinet doors have been sturdy insulation, we'd be lining our partitions with them. so a strategies as one pipe freezing until now the different, i might very almost think of that if someone is going to place pipe insulation on purely one pipe, they might positioned it on the warm line and not the chilly line, which might provide it extra freezing secure practices. i might think of that with a clean, properly insulated domicile, in climate that may not strangely chilly for the area, there does not be a great deal of threat, even with the shown fact which you assert which you're letting the interior temperature stay cooler than is common for an inhabited domicile; and that invites the potential of a freeze-up. seems such as you could properly be faraway from the domicile? i might propose in case you have an emergency touch, you think of roughly having them develop the temperature somewhat, and run some water from each and each faucet, purely to verify for a frozen pipe.

Hot water, but not boiling hot. Its called the Mpemba effect after a boy in Africa rediscovered the effect he wrote to scientists in England who scoffed at the idea - they thought it was nonsense - however, when they actually tried it for themselves they saw it was true. Somehow the warmer water is able to make the phase transition to ice more smoothly. There are a variety of explanations. None of which are entirely satisfactory. Research continues!

The body of water CANT freeze if it is boiling, obviously. However, the steam that it produces, will freeze quiker because of the size of the water particles.
Altitude comes into it as well. Water boils at a lower temp, the higher you go ... i think it is 1 degrres less for every 100 meters you climb, and also the freezing point increase the same with height.

Boiling water evaporates faster than cold. And Boiling water has to cool to freeze, So in no way boiling water freezes quicker than cold.

No, because it has to descend to the point of freezing. hot water takes longer time.

If it's hot it takes longer.

yes, its called the Mpemba effect.
Read this webpage and find out why..... pretty interesting!
