24MBH Separate FW tank drain?

Hi Folks. Fairly new owner here with a question. I consulted the owners manual and it says there is both a FW tank drain and the low point drains. I am trying to drain the FW tank to flush out the antifreeze I put in last fall. For the life of me I cannot find a drain for the tank itself, only the low point drain. Pump must be running to get low point valves to drain, but I doubt the pump will completely empty the tank. If there is a separate tank drain (gravity), where is it? Thanks. Pete

The fresh water drain willl usually be near the tank and all I ever had were piped to a small valve that was mounted on the frame. It will drain slowly and many replace the small valve with a regular faucet with a 1/4 turn valve.

Good luck finding it.

Yeah, it's the finding it that's the problem. My trailer (a 2018) has the glacier package so the underside is covered. I'm not even be sure where the water tank is to be honest. The fill is just aft of the main entry door. Anyone else have an idea where to look? Thanks

Duh! I found it, opposite side of the trailer from the fill, under the slide-out. All is well.
