Draining hot water tank
Hi everyone, Is it necessary to drain the hot water tank when the MH is sitting for several months between trips? I live in the SW so freezing temps are not a problem. Thanks, Bill

I did remove it just to check that very thing. It was completely drained and nothing came out the drain hole.
Some OEM's install a Check valve on the cold intake of the WH. If so, then your method will not drain the WH tank. So, if someone wants to use your method, they need to then remove the Anode or lower drain(Atwood/Dometic) and see if water comes out. If it does, your method will not work. If no water, then use your method. Doug
