Water drain valve for compressor

[URTOAST]

I have just finished putting my compressor in my attic, the air lines are run, but the drain didnt end up where I wanted it. Does the drain need to flow down hill, or can I run about 25 ft of pipe without sloap, and release the valve with some air left in the tank to force it out? Thanks

That should be fine. Water will seek the lowest point. You may have to bleed it a couple of times to get all the water out, but at least it won't be sitting in your tank... it will be sitting in the 25ft of pipe instead.
