Easier Way to Drain Shop Air Compressor Water

Routine draining of moisture from the shop air compressor will prolong its life, but access is limited. This is my simple solution for easier access to the drain valve by relocating it.

Simple and effective but for all that work why not put a quick release chuck on the end for additional functionality?

That is an EXCELLENT suggestion and I thank you. Simply pulling the pressure release pin would be an easier means of evacuating the condensation. I also like the idea of having a redundant pressure release device for safety purposes.

@@cobrasteve414 To release condensation at the PRV, you would have to tilt the unit so the condensate collects at the valve. Relocating the PRV wouldn't be a good idea.
