Only need one for high flow (regardless of heat) ...as the purpose is to protect the main line (and subsequently the fire hydrant system on that line) from loss of pressure/water if the lines burst in the house. At the meter gives easy access for the municipality to install/maintain them at the shutoff. They can install one street at a time without ever entering the homes (and require them for all new buildings).
