Hi Everyone,
I've been busy preparing my 28+ for the winter. Does anyone have a preferred way of draining the hot water tank? The tank is rather loose in it's mount (another jfix-it job to do), so I can shake it a bit. It doesn't feel like there's water in the tank, but I want to be sure, before the temperature hits -30 C. I have considered removing the tank completely, since I want to check the condition of the electrical heating element anyway. Is it possible to remove the hot water tank without disconnecting the engine coolant lines (i.e. Does the heat exchanger unit attached to the engine cooling lines slide out of the tank easily, while remaining attached to the hoses)?
Thanks for your help folks! )
