Fresh Water Tank Drain

[Pete Masterson]

My coach has a water drain on the curb side (near where the water
pump is located) that requires the pump to operate in order to drain
the tank. It also has a 2" valve (similar to the 3" valves used for
the holding tanks) behind a door in the water/holding tank hookup bay
that drains the fresh water tank by gravity (and fairly quickly, I
might add). The fresh water plumbing is white plastic, while the
holding tank plumbing is black plastic pipe in my coach.

I believe that the pump-required drain has something to do with
winterizing (but that's not a problem where I live as it never
freezes there).

There should be a lever on the base of the bed. otherwise lift up the bed and look next to the pump you should find a way to open the valve. I also have a hand washing spigot on the curb side of my coach, i havent tried it to drain the tank but i guess that it wold work also.

Hi Chuck
I just open the drain to the ground & my tank will drain. I don't have to use my pump & if I did the
water would go in to my black or gray tank
