Default Another Filter freeze?

I've been off of the Newsgroups for a while.. Comcast stop supporting
them for some reason so if this was already addressed.. I apologize
for the redundancy:

My Filter is still running, my pond is all closed., My concern:
The PVC from the Filter back to the pond, do I need to worry about the
water freezing inside? Do I need to insulate the PVC. I have the
water flowing at full speed, (No idea what the flow rate is).
Any suggestions are welcomed
=============================

If the water keeps moving it shouldn't freeze. I shut my pumps off for th
e
winter and allow the warmer water to settle to the bottom as it does in
nature. Get a free news server as many other people are doing. I use a fr
ee
one. Some you don't even have to sign up for. Just add them to your news

reader. Aioe comes to mind.
