Recommend an auto drain

[ronan]

My compressor is outside in a shack i built specifically for it , i had no room for it in my shed. Its good but hard to get to the drain plug, i could put a bit of hose and a valve of the drain plug hole, but if i could get a auto drain that didn't cost too much i would buy one.
Any recommendations ?

i have connected a length of hose and an old blow gun onto mine and all seems to be fine



its amazing how far down the workshop the water shoots

Yup thats what i did with the compressor at work , i used to give it a blast across the car park once a day.

we have this on the compressors in work, no blow gun though just a ball valve mounted on a post

I got a couple off eBay for £30. Work really well.
