Do you all take your chillers offline in the winter or just leave them connected without power?

I leave mine collected with flow throughout the winter. The only difference is I bring it inside. This eliminates corrosion scaling etc.

Can you really trust that you won't ever have a need for it in the winter. So Cal is one of those places that you expect the unexpected.

That being said most of my friends that ran chillers either just unplugged them or did nothing different.
