Is it necessary to dig to the frost line if the building is heated? I ask because I have little floor jacks under my kitchen that I presume the renovators put in to help support the tile and granite that was installed. This is on a crawl so it gets cold below the house but it doesn't freeze or else my pipes wouldn't be very happy

My crawl space is just a dirt floor and only the foundation wall footings are below frost line. The dirt in the middle isn't dug as deep.
