How to Unclog a Drain Valve: When You Can’t Drain Your Water Heater.

  • First turn OFF the fuel to your water heater. Turn OFF the circuit breaker for electric units and turn the control knob to pilot OFF for gas.
  • Attach a garden hose to the drain valve and run the other end outside (or to a drain). Then open the drain valve on the water heater.
  • Open a nearby hot water faucet to allow air to enter the tank.
  • Inspect the water as it drains from your tank. If it is clear, the valve is not clogged.
  • If the water isn't draining or is only slightly draining, it is obstructed and you'll need to unclog your drain valve.
