The code issue is certainly possible. Our work setting up the camp to use it during the winter was done in 1983. Eventually we stopped draining the house since we were coming up more often and wanted to leave food, liquids, etc in the house and got tired of the draining routine and left the heat on at 50 degrees and just turned off the water and hot water breakers and opened the hot and cold water valves on the sink, bathroom sink and bathtub/shower. Still kept the heat on in the pump "room". Had forced hot air heat so the heat from the furnace in the crawl space and leaked air from the heat ducts going up into the house kept the crawl space warm enough to prevent the well water line from freezing. A Freeze Alarm alerted us to power outages and furnace issues. It helped being only an hour and 15 minutes away to deal with any issues.

Good luck with your investigation.
