Coachman 355 RLTS Fresh Water Drain and Water Heater Bypass

First post on an RV Forum.

Just got a 2012 Coachman 355 RLTS, we had a 2005 toy hauler before. I cannot locate the fresh water drain valves or the water heater bypass. These are not mentioned in the owners manual, the online videos reference a low point drain valve. I have opened every door and cabinet and cannot locate these. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I agree, though the cold water might be blue, like ours.

    If you still cannot find them, you might want to check out:

    for others that might have your trailer.

    The drains are probably under the trailer somewhere near the perimeter.

    Water heater bypass? My last trailer it was hidden under the kitchen sink.
