I agree with budgevheli about keeping R22s in hangars in wet climates. I had a bad experience with an upper sheave bearing failure on a R22 that had been kept outside in the wet. The bearing failure was at least partly put down to water ingress into the bearing - not to mention the general extra corrosion work every annual.
