Autodrains

Tired of crawling under the kitchen slide to open the galley tank, and because our remote pulls were getting more and more difficult to open and close, we added Autodrains...

OK, now lets see more, and how it works. That looks like what we need on our rig.
THANKS Larry & LaVonne

Autodrains

These electric drains are from Barker Manufacturing and don't require removal of your existing gate valve. They fit over the existing valve with a wiring harness that connects to the switch.

Was this difficult to install? How long have you been using this?

Wasn't difficult at all.

The galley tank valve was installed in 2009. The others, this year when I couldn't easily open and close the black and gray valves.
