Thanks, I understand. I assume you're saying that the 1 green circled should be a much greater angle, but is not too bad. And the red circled is bad, presumably something like what this image is saying.

Maybe not a big deal in TX, but here in TN I would definitely want insulation on all exterior pipes, especially HW.

Yes, during the big freeze back in Feb or Mar, we got lucky and didn't have anything freeze. I'd done some things to try to prevent freezing and got very lucky that they worked. But yes, I need to get under and probably, I assume insulate all of the pipes down there.
I don't think we're too worried about the hot getting cold, but I think we'd be best served if all of the lines were insulated, so we don't lose heat on the hot lines and we aren't in danger of any of the lines freezing in case there's another freak freeze event.
