Puhleeze.

Every working compressor tank has water in the bottom all the time,
drain or no drain. The drain just keeps it from taking up a
significant volume.


But you're wrong , Dick . A well-maintained tank will have very little
water in the bottom . Our tanks at work (cabinet shop) all have automatic
drains , in addition to dryers between the tank and compressor .
