The "L" in LCD display is liquid. ?They can freeze which can damage the display. Keep the shack above freezing and you should be OK.

My shack is in a 10x16 Shed that is outside of my house.? It is insulated but not heated when not in use.? Anything I should be concerned about with my gear being out there?? Anything specific to the IC-7000? I use it as my main rig out there along side a couple 2m and 70cm mobile radios.? I tend to turn on the heat when I'm out there for an extended period of time but it rarely gets above 60 degrees.? With the winter winds it can sometimes get pretty cold in the shack.
Temperature cycling is always a potential issue.? You could always leave the radio running, which minimises the cycling.
