dennysnine Report post Posted March 10, 2012 We have a 2005 American Tradition motorhome. We need to empty the fresh water tank. No books to tell us how to do this. Does anyone have any idea about valves or anything to turn to get the water out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted March 10, 2012 Hopefully someone else with your make and model will chime in, but look under the coach in the area of the potable water tank. You are looking for an open hose, usually 1/2-3/4" ID exiting the bottom of the coach. The drain valve is generally just above it. Brett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted March 10, 2012 dennysnine, Welcome to the Forum. Can you locate your water pump? 90% of the time your drain valve will be right there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dennysnine Report post Posted March 10, 2012 Thank you for the tip we didn't find a valve, but took hose off the water pump and it let out all the water, Thanks for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted March 10, 2012 dennysnine, Check to see if you have room to put a diverter valve in the pressure line and run a line to the outside of your coach. Then when you want to drain your fresh water tank you can divert your water out the coach and use the pump to drain the tank quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
