Side note. I once tried to drain a water heater to flush it and sediment in the water had clogged the valve at the bottom. It was a messy proposition getting it emptied. I wen to a tankless heater after that. Would be a good idea to empty yours every once in a while to flush it out.

Wow. I could hardly finish the article in this mornings NY Times about sane prepping (that turned me on to this site). I’m getting started. First question. Does stored water have a shelf life? I didn’t see anything about that above. Thanks for your help.
