That is what I was thinking, so I was wondering what is the point of having them there in the first place.
The point is to drain water from your rig. A couple years ago we were in the middle of camping season when my wife got very sick during a pregnancy. We stopped camping mid season and didn't go out for months. Water from a campground was in the water heater and developed a putrid sulphur-esque smell from sitting for months. It took a long time to get rid of that smell. Lesson learned... we drain our low points after every outing so we don't get that smell ever again.
