The plastic tanks are carried in galvanized steel boxes that are lined with expanded polystyrene insulation. Each box should have a small duct leading to it to provide warm air around the tank.
Even our 1975 was set up this way.
Some models - older tandem axle 22s come to mind - have
12v heating pads, but these are the exception.
But you asked about the water piping. Leave the closet and cupboard doors open to ensure warm air gets to all parts of the trailer.
