The best way to purge water from pipes for the winter is to open the tap for about 24 hours. It is also a good idea to install frost proof hydrants on all outside outlets.
I see no reason why you would insulate them. When you close your pool for winter you will purge (empty) your pump and pipes. The water in the pool would freeze long before the water will in the pipes under ground.
Because when water freezes it expands thus bursting the pipes.
To prevent water from freezing in pipes during winter, you can insulate your pipes, keep your home heated, and let faucets drip to keep water flowing.
if the water in the pipes freezes, it will expand and break the pipes.

Anomalous expansion of water and bursting of water pipes during winter is because ice takes more space than water
Insulating water pipes helps prevent freezing by maintaining the water temperature above freezing point, reducing the risk of burst pipes and water damage. Frozen pipes can disrupt water flow and cause costly repairs if they burst due to ice expansion, so proper insulation is key for winter protection.
To prevent freezing water pipes in your home during winter, you can insulate your pipes, keep your home heated above 55 degrees Fahrenheit, and allow faucets to drip during very cold weather to keep water flowing.
The water in your pipes will freeze, and then burst!
Yes, they can
Yes, there are several ways to prevent a water pipe from freezing during the winter months. Some methods include insulating the pipes, allowing a small trickle of water to flow through the pipes, and keeping the area around the pipes heated.
To prevent frozen shower pipes during winter, you can insulate the pipes, keep the temperature in your home above freezing, and let the water drip slowly to keep it flowing.
