Hot water tank drain plug
Hi everyone, hope that all is well with each of you out there.
Due to some emergency brain surgery a month ago, our camping season sadly has come to an abrupt end.
We are in the process of cleaning out and winterizing the 5er for winter storage. While I was draining the hot water tank, I got to thinking there must be a better way than having to remove this hard to get at plastic plug ever year to drain the tank.
I thought that I had heard of some types of plugs with a flexible pipe on them and a valve at the end that can just be opened and the tank drained without removing the plastic plug.
Any one have or seen or know if such a thing exists?
Won’t need it this year. But years into the future if my health allows and we can continue RVing we would like to use this type of arrangement at seasons end.
