Got onto this subject from an earlier discussion. I want to install a small inline electric heater under a sink in my summer cabin. Need it only for washing dishes by hand–no dishwasher. But I will have to drain it each fall before winter freeze-up. I’m wondering about ease of draining, inner configurations that would trap water, etc. I’d be glad to hear suggestions re models and installation.
