How often should you drain the air tank to prevent moisture buildup?

Weekly
Monthly
Daily during pre-trip inspections
Before every long trip

The correct answer is: Daily during pre-trip inspections

Draining the air tank daily during pre-trip inspections is essential for maintaining the integrity and safety of an air brake system. Moisture accumulation in the air tanks can lead to corrosion, freezing during cold weather, and potential failure of the brake system. By draining the air tanks each day, you ensure that any trapped moisture is removed, minimizing the risk of these issues. This practice not only enhances the reliability of the braking system but also complies with safety regulations and best practices for vehicle maintenance. Consistent daily checks allow drivers to catch potential problems early, keeping the air brake system functioning correctly and safely.
