    Fresh Water Tank Drain Valve Leaking

    Hi all, our fresh water tank drain valve is leaking. It doesn’t look too difficult but the pinch clamps and small plastic piping look like those are troublesome. Has anyone removed and replaced these and with what? Something more sturdy? Easier the next time? Thank you for suggestions.

    Freshwater drain extension?

    Has anybody extended their freshwater drain to the side of the RV? I'm getting tired of crawling under my MiniLite to remove the drain cap, especially with my bad knees. I have a preliminary design in my head involving pex fittings and an inline ball valve, but I'm a little concerned about...

    Petcock drains ??

    So I believe these are petcock drains in the compartment on the outside of my rig. I found out I had a leaky kitchen faucet over the weekend I’m trying to repair. I’m not sure how to open these drains though. Obviously not the same as a radiator petcock. Advise please

    Fresh Water Tank Drain

    Hello just started to de-winterize my 2022 Georgetown GT5. Found the red and blue low point drains. Is one of these used to drain the fresh water tank or do I need to keep looking? The blue drain only takes water out if the pump is on. I think the red drain does it without the pump. Sorry...

I initially thought...
