When the temperature is 47 degrees, NOTHING is in danger of freezing !
Shut off the gas valve feeding the heater until a qualfied service person diagnoses and repairs the problem. The valve should be just outside the heater, turn the handle 90 degrees until it is perpendicular to the pipe.
The heater core may be plugged or bad. You can either flush the heater core and the 2 lines running thru the firewall to the heater core or you can replace the heater core.
A reverse cycle A/C must mean a heat pump. Every heat pump has a C.O.P. or coefficient of performance. They are rated at 17 and 47 degrees outside. A new heat pump should be around 3.3 at 47 degrees and 2.1 at 17 degrees. This means even at 17 degrees outside, it will produce 2.1 btu per kilowatt to 1 btu per kilowatt of an electric strip heater. And 3.3 to 1 at 47 degrees. Depending on where you live though, the electric heater may be needed to supplement the capacity of the heat pump.
Yes, a hotwater heater may be placed outside anywhere in the state of Florida. It should be under cover such as a garage or shed.
