Josh, Presured air works wonders. Any RV place will have an adapter. Amazon has them, too. Marek

The 3-way valve I suggested also ensures that a flush path is available for that sediment. Many designs have the drain "T"ed off of the cold water inlet port so flushing really doesn't pass water through the heater at all.

I have decided to simply drain the tank and leave all valves open for expansion and not do Vodka.

The drain in not quite positioned at the bottom of the tank so there is always some residual water left in the tank and although I leave the drain valve open for expansion I am concerned that any freezing could damage the tank connections. Any advice would be appreciated.
