MountainAir 05 so you do not remove the ANODE rod?? Is the water heater ok with that? I was told, that withiout the anode rod, the innerds of the water heater will deteriorate and the ANODE stops that from happening;
UPDATE The anode rod and nut is now loose and I drained the water heater, will pressurize system and push whatever water is left in there AFTER I flush it out , to get the gunk out that is on the bottom. Then put in the bypass on for water heater and pressurize water system, get the air through all pipes including washer, and once that is done I put antifreeze through to all lines incl toilet shower and all faucets and washer. Also outside shower. Probably more than necessary but I feel safe doing that. I DID FIND the drains for the water tank one on left and one on right and drained them but still haVe not found LOW POINT DRAIN. IT IS NOT IN THE WATER CABINET. I WILL GET UNDERNEATH AND SEE IF I CAN FIND IT BUT SHOULDN'T IT BEI IN THE MIDDLE SOMEWHERE UNDERNEATH ? GOT A SCHEMATIC BUT IT MENTIONS THE LOW POINT DRAIN BUT DOES NOT GIVE A LOCATION, WEIRD.
