I look at storing gear in the winter the same as not diving for a couple months. Make sure that its not in areas that experience high moisture, and no air movement. You can buy a seal saver but it should really be started when the seals are new. I've only used it a couple times, and to be honest have never really given much thought to it on the seals. I've had seals last a couple years and others last almost a year. Things that might get moldy, make sure that they are dry...but also make note of anything that may need fixing or replacing so that when you do decide to go diving...its ready to go. Check the dates on the tanks, and get them VIP'd if needed. Lots of people use January/February as the month to get regs serviced and tanks done b/c the dive shops are a bit slower and the divers aren't in a huge rush so things can be done usually well and in a timely manor.
