Zusammenfassung:	An appliance is configured for communication with an external computing device. The appliance includes a valve and a controller configured for signal communication with the external computing device. The controller configured to operate the valve in a freeze prevention mode in response to a freeze prevention mode activation signal from the external computing device. The freeze prevention mode activation signal includes one or more of a fluid time for the valve in the freeze prevention mode, a fluid volume through the valve in the freeze prevention mode, and a break time for the valve in the freeze prevention mode. In the freeze prevention mode, the controller opens and closes the valve of the appliance to flow fluid through the appliance according to the freeze prevention mode.
