: How do I flush out my hot water heater?

good question....is this an old heater or a newer heater? is your water supply problematic with lime or other minerals? In many instances, I do not recommend flushing water heaters out, especially if they have a plastic drain valve . It is a recommended service point for all mfgrs, but unless you start this procedure from the time of installation, you will generally create more problems than you solve.
