laser in cold building
(OP)
The owner wants me to ask this. Is there a way to let a 2000w laser set all winter in a below freezing building?

All in all, the water is the biggest problem. If you can run some antifreeze in the chiller before it goes into storage it may be, not too bad.

you have function cold auto aging. You can use this to slowly warming up your machine. The downside is its uses a more lasergas then you normally do but is worth it. I`ve done it for more then 5 years and it also good for your internal mirrors. I use the internal resonator mirrors for 10.0000 hours and after that i changed them.

Demineralized water? that will freeze just fine.
For that matter, don't forget the chiller - it won't like freezing, either.
You could probably tent the machine and give it a thermostatic heater to keep it above freezing. Just remember all the other stuff that has water in it.
