 Okay, guys, this is what we got going on in the bathroom sink So I'm gonna show you how to drain your hot water tank stay tuned First thing you want to do is of course make sure your hot water tank is off This one is electric so I went over to the panel It's turned off because if you don't while this thing is is is Drain down here's a There's a heating element up here One down to bottom. They will burn out and they'll burn out quick Second thing you're going to want to do Shut the water off to the tank Right here is our shut off All right, it's off. Also if you have a gas Hot water heater Just turn it down to where it says pilot or Vacation and that'll be fine that just keeps it from kicking on it won't kick on if you turn it down That if shut it all the way off you have to relight the pilot light We all know those can be a pain in the ass, right? So just turn it down a pilot or vacation make sure this one's off now. I'm not sure which one it was So I shut off all the 220 breakers. So Nothing on 220 which this is 220 nothing on 220 is going to work. So What you're going to do is? I got a hose ran clear outside a garden hose here. We're going to hook this up We got a screwed on there somewhat But the threads on this end is stripped so I had screwed on with a pair of pliers and you're not supposed to have to do that All right, so we're ready. Let's go ahead and drain this tank If it'll drain and maybe plug that so much. It's not going to want to drain. Yeah, I see a little bit of leakage down there So all right It's gonna take a few minutes. So we'll let it drain. I'll be back with you Also, you're going to want to at least open a valve Like a valve in the house on your hot water side like your hot water sink You know the hot water in your sink or whatever because you have to let air into it or you can use this That's your emergency valve make sure When you get a fill that up To turn that back off. So All right. Yeah, we got some water coming through it now. So I'll be right back with you Okay, guys, this is what I had to do it stop flowing I got some water here because I actually had to take this off shove this wire up in there To get this to get water to come out of here So what I'm doing now is flushing at this like my fifth time. So I'm gonna leave I'm gonna leave that open I'm gonna turn this water on and what that does is It gets a sediments down in the bottom of that floating around and coming out the hose So let's go out here to the hose and see what we've got The brown that is I'm just gonna keep doing it until Till comes out clear that's coming out of our hot water. Hey guys I'll be back with you Okay guys, let's see what we got here Let's go out here and check the kitchen. I've got two glasses of water here first You turn the hot water on I don't have this tank turned on yet. That's the hot water Here's the cold water. You guys seen what the hell was coming out of there. And there we go guys Crystal clear once again All right, so that's how you do it What I wanted to tell you guys earlier was if you're worried about the hot water getting burnt what I did I forgot to I was gonna do it. I just turned on all the hot water and let it run till it got cold That was after I shut the tank off and then I knew I wasn't going to get burnt when I turned it loose down below So there you go. I flushed it out. It took several hours because I did it like 15 16 times at least You know and you just got to keep doing it back and forth, you know Fill the tank up shut the water off turn the valve down to bottom Let it drain out then turn your water back on to the tank and then turn And let it flush out through the hose some Shut the hose off, you know down to bottom Let it fill up and you just keep doing that and you guys will be fine. So anyway guys, that's how you clean the That's how you flush your hot water tank, so All right guys remember she bears the myth the man of legend. I'm gone for now. Bye. Bye guys
