Cool Drain for Fresh Water Holding Tank?

Is there a drain for the freshwater holding tank on the 2015 Pinnacle FLSA. I drain the low point for the plumbing, just wondering if this also drains the freshwater holding tank.

Also, how do I put sanitizor in the tank from the heade?

Thanks.

Most RVs have a fresh water fill point. Not the city water hose connection.

I partially fill my tank and then add Clorox to a bucket with some water and pour it in, then fill it up the rest of the way. Run some water by pump to shower and sink. Let stand for an hour or two and drain, then flush.
We don't drink tank water so if there is any residual chlorine odor it doesn't bother us.

Find your fresh water tank and partially crawl under. If no drain there then your RV may only have one drain.

drain

Check by your entry door for drain. As for sanitizing you should have gotten a short hose to put in bottle then just set valves at connection center to sanitize or country fill and turn on pump.

Thanks.

I do not have any way of pouring liquid into my system. Header has suction pick-up maybe?

Bought pre-owned, don't know about short pick-up hose. Entire bottom is sealed, have been into it though. Only drain I have seen is the one white PVC with valve for low point drain.

I have the '16 North Point 383FLFS it is based on the '15 Pinnacle layout, the white pvc drain on mine is the fresh water tank, the low point drains are located behind an access panel in the basement on the door side, there are 2 "pull" valves behind the access panel one for hot, one for cold, as for sanitizing you have to siphon through the docking station, there should be a lable in there to show you the direction to turn all of the valves to sanitize.

One common technique is to add the bleach into the hose, before filling the tank with water.
