fresh water tank drain

Where is the freshwater tank drain on a 2013 White Hawk 26dsrb? I see the fill for the tank but can't find the drain. Thanks.

Often the fresh water drains are up under the trailer. You should see a drain valve hanging down under the fresh water tank.

Nothing there. Only the low point drains on the other side.

On my White Hawk 28DSBH it is located underneath the trailer, below the fresh water tank.

I see a hose under the tank but no valve or plug in it. Could one of the low point drains on the other side be for the tank? All the other RV's we have had used 2 pow point drains. One for cold lines and the other for hot plus a fresh water tank drain.

Every rig I have owned had a in line valve under the rig on the drain hose. Not familiar with this specific model.

There may be a shut-off valve for that drain inside the vanity cabinet in the bathroom. At least, that's where it is in my Eagle TT.

Exclamation

Please let us know what Jayco says. I looked and don't see mine under the trailer either. Must be an inside valve or two like Brownie says in the Eagle.

Just received a reply from Jayco. It is one of the low point drains on the side near the dump handles. I had thought one was hot water lines and one cold water lines like on our previous RV.

I have a 2014 WhiteHawk 30DSQB.....I haven't found a valve on mine other than the low point drain which is on the opposite side of the trailer.....I have two other low point drains on the same side as where you fill the fresh water tank.....I assumed those two were for the water lines.....I had planned to empty mine with the low point drain though this seems like it could take quiet a while for 48 gallons.

Just one question. Is your fresh water tank higher than the low point drain? Typically the tank is mounted to the underside of the travel trailer floor between the frame rails. The "low point drain" is the lowest point in the pressure supply lines not necessarily the lowest point in the entire water system.

Locate the freshwater tank under the trailer, look for a hose barb protruding from one side of the tank right at the bottom. It typically sticks out horizontally. Usually there is a piece of low pressure hose with nylon reinforcement leading to a white spigot type valve mounted to the frame rail.

low point drains do the fresh water tank and the plug in the hot water heater is how you drain that

With your drain valves open and your pump off, open a faucet to let air in and speed up draining. Depending so the size of your fresh tank can still take quite awhile to flush several times.

Fresh Water Drain

I had trouble finding my fresh water drain on my 27DSRL. It was under the belly and under the slidout. When the slideout is extended it is hard to see the drain valve.

Found it. It is also under the slide. Almost impossible to see with the slide out. Hadn't really been able to get under it due to the weather. Today was our first nice day.
