Hello,
I need to replace an immersion heater element and unfortunately this is at the bottom of the (cylinder). There is no draincock from the (cylinder) itself, there is a 22m feed going through the bottom so I was wondering if there is a 22mm self piercing tap that could be used to drain the tank from this feeders? Or is there any other way to empty this? Just unscrewing the element means that I have to use a small pan to empty the (cylinder) and it would take forever plus some spillage as i open up the heating element.
Thanks
