Not deep enough . depending on area and just how deep the frost goes down in your area you want to be no less then a foot lower , myself two to three feet deeper . around here they say four feet is good , but i have seen years where the frost has gone 6 feet deep , seen city water lines that the ditch was four feet deep but top of a 10 inch pipe a cast iron pipe no less was 38 inches deep and Froze on a dead end street over night when not water was being used . And the end results were broken cast iron 10 inch water line and the joys of water line replacement in 15 below weather . We are on city water and right now the water coming out of the cold water side is at 38 degrees due to lines not being deep enough , some places the lines run under the cleared streets and those areas freeze deeper then when run along curb lawns with snow cover . Water lines that run up under drives will freeze faster due to them being cleared of snow and not deep enough . If ya have old fashioned metal water lines and a D C gas driven welder you can hook it upto the lines and heat them up to thaw the pipe out , don't work on plastic.
