    Is this the fresh water tank sump valve?

    Getting our 'new to us' 2014 Roo ready for our first trips. We went to fill the tank and water came pouring out the bottom. I see other threads on this so I'm feel fairly confident what I am seeing is the sump on the fresh water tank. What weirds me out is the male thread connector on there...

    Modifications to low point fresh water drain.

    Any recommendations on rerouting or adding a shield to the low point drains on a nobo 19.8? They hang low and can easily be damaged by a small rock or obstacle.

    Fresh water tank

    Have 2021 Berkshire 34B. Is the only way to drain the tank is by running the pump? Can’t find a drain plug for the tank. Not new to roving. Just confused with this model.
