You don't have to do all of that. Just shut the valves off on both side of the backflow preventer and drain the water out of it with the little release valves on the side. There are usually 2 small valves on the side of the preventer. That is the only thing that will freeze. If you want to take it a step further, just make sure you have the exposed lines in the preventer loop insulated.

Keep in mind the guy that responded shows that he is from Utah. If so, his approach has to be more severe than us in the southern states (and I'm north of Atlanta).
