Coachmen Freelander low point drain valve

"Low Point Drains" sounds like a terminology problem. Normally what are called low point drains function to drain water out of the hot and cold water lines when sanitizing the system. It may be Farmboy's rig has different labeling.

Not a labeling problem. My fresh water tank has only one way to be drained and that's through the low point drain which is the drain that is used to drain the water lines for winterizing. My tank is not down low it is up higher than anything else in the plumbing system and therefore uses the low point drain to empty.

Hey Gia, what is that drain valve made of? Our old Jayco has little quarter-turn valves in its water system that can be a little stiff, but they're made of brass (bronze?) and I'm not too worried about breaking one.

Farmboy & Group, Our system is a little different, I guess... We don't have "gravity fill" where you stick a hose in filler "hole" and could also use a can and a funnel. City water connection only with a valve inside to divert the city water to the tank and fill it. But it has three drains: Hot Water Low Point, Cold Water Low Point, and Fresh Water Tank Drain. The Low Points are those Brass Valves, hidden in an outside storage bay. The Tank Drain is a little plastic spigot on the side of the coach body. I've started using it as a water source to wash my hands after hitching the toad, etc.
Like many of you, we use the "Sharpie on the Floor Labeling System."
