Water Cooled system not turned on in 12 months

Hi,

I've just moved to Australia and I left my machine in the UK for 10 months. I've just got it delivered to me but the machine hasn't been turned on for 12 months. I've been told that there shouldn't be any issues but I'm curious to get some second opinions.

Does anyone anticipate that I'll have issues or does someone else have any experience with leaving a water cooled system for long periods of time?

Thanks in advance for anyone that responds,
Cheers

TBH I have left a loop unused for 11 months.. I just took it apart, cleaned everything as you do for a new build and it ran fine. You may want to change your tubing if it gives you peace of mine, but just drain, clean, refill, and if there are any issues, change what needs to be changed.

I went over a period of not using mine for a year. It turned on fine.
