Very well constructed but the opening is small so it drains slowly.

Works fair hard to shut off

My Dometic has a tight little space for the drain plug. I wanted to replace the original plastic plug with something that would be easier to use. This fits the bill, but it didn't work out as well as I had in my mind. The drain plug was difficult to get in due to space available. I could have disconnected the gas line for more space, but I didn't want the hassle. I had to put in the 1/2 plug first, then the smaller unit with the T plug screwed all the way in to make enough room to twist it. Brass is a little marked up but no critical wounds. The drain is very slow. Opening a hot water faucet allows air in so the tank doesn't hold the water (removes vacuum). Even with the drain open, what took 30 seconds before took 15 minutes for a 6 gallon tank that was not full.Overall initial impressions it does the job and I'm satisfied. I can drain the tank without tools, without possibly breaking other things trying to fit a wrench in there or cutting my hands on sheet metal (heat deflector). It just takes more time.

This water heater valve makes it ver easy to drain a water heater tank.

Product arrived quickly and worked as advertised. Only quibbles are the toggle for draining seems to unscrew the plug, and it didn’t fully drain with the toggle wide open

I was tired of removing the water heater drain plug on my camper to drain it so i got this. Put it on and checked for leaks. No leaks so we went to the lake. As soon as the water heater got hot it started leaking. The petcock was leaking not my install. Tried cranking it tighter, no luck. Got worse as the day went by so i pulled it out and put the plastic one back in. Not a quality product.

Put it in now going to seal it in
