Fresh Water Tank Draining
Pumping the water out with the self-contained water
pump can empty the fresh water tank. Simply turn on
the pump switch and open a couple of faucets until the
water will no longer drain out, or on all models except
the 19 ft., use the petcock-type drain valve located on
the freshwater tank pan described above. Be sure to
watch closely and turn the pump off when the tank runs
dry. Pump damage can occur if the pump runs dry for
more than a few minutes.
Water Heater Draining
All models have a drain plug or petcock on the water
heater. Access is from the exterior. The plug or valve is
usually located in the lower-left corner, viewed as you
face the exterior of the water heater.
