Solar Tracker/Solar Panel Winter Preparation
I installed a Zomeworks passive solar tracker with a single Kyocera 130 watt solar panel this summer to power a pump in New Hampshire. With winter coming I’ve turned off the pump. Should I take the tracker/panel down and store it during the winter or will it be OK outside?

Howard, I would think inside would be better, or cover it up to keep out ice and snow.
