Setup a standard faucet for water tank drain

[dannac]

Water tank drain.

Would like to setup with standard 3/4" for hose.

Could someone help with parts needed please.

Please see attached image.

If it were mine I would use a 2" M.I.P adapter and then bush down to 3/4" with a ball valve and hose adapter. Probably PVC down to 3/4" and then solder the rest. Drill a hole in the cap and then needle nose to pull it out

Thanks for the reply.

Not familiar with plumbing parts terminology.

Attached image of PVC fitting, is this what you are referring to.
Though it does not have a female threaded end.

Trying to keep the faucet distance from tank as short as possible.

Just noticed the "common plumbing terms" thread at the top of the forum.

M.I.P. is a iron pipe adapter.

Found this on Amazon ... would this work ?

Yes, should work. You need a biggish wrench and joint compound.

Thanks breplum & artic bill.

Joint compound ... is that some type of paste ?

Is teflon tape needed ?

Joint compound is for drywall.....

Plumbers use pipe dope J/k it’s the same.

I would just use pipe dope on the threads.
