To drain a waterbed, you can buy an electric draining pump from your waterbed retailer. However, spending the money isn’t necessary if you want to give it a try by hand. Follow these steps to drain a waterbed without a water pump.
Things You’ll Need:
Garden hose
Window
Outdoor faucet
Step1
Unplug your waterbed heater before starting. This is an extremely important safety precaution.
Step2
Run your garden hose through the bedroom window and into the bedroom. Make sure it is attached tightly to the outside faucet. If you are draining from an upper level of your house, work backwards by bringing the hose upstairs, letting it drop to the ground and then connecting it to the outside faucet.
Step3
Create air pressure in the mattress. Turn on the water and let it fill the bed for about 15 seconds to move the air from inside the hose into the bed. This creates an air pouch in the waterbed for siphoning.
Step4
Shut off the water from outside. Detach the hose from the faucet and lay it down in an area that can handle the runoff from the waterbed. Gravity will siphon out the water as long as the end of the hose is below the level of the top of the hose.
Step5
Allow a couple of hours for the mattress to drain entirely. If the water begins to drain slowly, lift the end opposite the valve to help the water reach the valve.

Tips:
Quite a bit of water is contained in the bed. Drain the water into an area that isn’t dirty or nicely landscaped in order to avoid a muddy mess.
