Default Nitrous bottles mounted in my bed

of my 94 S-10, which, is now parked at the shop for the season. But, right now its 8* outside.

Should I do something with the bottle? Or be worried about the cold? Our garage at the house stays right around 50 degree's all year around. Would it be better to store the bottle here at the house, instead of my unheated shop?

Thanks.

I am curious too. my car has the bottle in my car in my garage and it is 10 degrees with wind chill. I have the Bottle in the Back of My 2001 Vette.

Will this hurt anything?

it wont hurt anything, only time it will hurt something is when it gets too hot and expands/explodes

I don't see how it could. Nitrous is already well below freezing, and one trick some guys like to use to fill the bottle easier is to actually freeze the bottle itself. You should be fine.

I live in hot Houston Texas, and I drove an 02' Lightning, and I had two crome 10 lb. NOS bottles mounted in the bed. I never ever had a problem. But yes hot tempatures outside could cause a problem, watch the bottle pressure.
