this summer replaced my old pressure tank with a new bladder tank - am very happy with the smaller size but have one question on how to winterize it. Have been draining the system for the winter for 20 years with no issues despite leaving property with no heat and 20 below temperatures. One concern I now have is how to handle the bladder in the tank when I drain the system - should I release the air pressure after draining the system or leave it with the 38 lbs of pressure?

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
