A short burst of rust-coloured water from a tap that has sat unused usually comes from corrosion inside an old galvanized branch. It clears quickly if it's just sediment. If it keeps running discoloured, the pipe feeding that tap is worth inspecting.

In most older homes here it's on the wall where the service line enters, usually the basement side facing the street, near the meter. Everyone in the house should know where it is before there's a reason to use it. If the valve is stiff or weeping, that's worth addressing while nothing is urgent.

Close the valve feeding it and leave the tap open, then call a plumber rather than applying heat yourself. A frozen section that has already split will flood the moment it thaws under pressure, so keeping the line depressurised is the point. If you can't find the valve, shut the main.

Insulation helps on the interior run, but it only slows heat loss, it doesn't add heat. On a line that already freezes most autumns, the real fix is draining it and closing a dedicated valve. Insulation on its own gives people false confidence.
