Can I leave my spirit level in a winterized house? (lemmy.world)

I own a house in the midwest and recently got a spirit level for some repairs. However, I don't stay here in the winter - I go south where it's warmer. Can I leave my level here in the house? temps will probably get down to -30 or so.

TIL, don't know why I didn't realise spirit levels are called "spirit" for a reason - it's not colored water inside 😭

Heres a neat fact. In German it is called a "water scale" (Wasserwaage), so I also have never thought twice about what kind of liquid is in there.
