drain ALL water from the fresh water tank? If not, how much does it hold back in the tank? On our old camper it dumped it all so I figured all would be dumped from it as well but just want to make sure.
Thank you!

Usually tanks are not perfectly flat on the bottom and some water will be left in the low points. Also, if the RV is not perfectly level, there will be some water left in the tank. That little bit of water will not cause freeze damage provided the drain valve is left partially open so that water that migrates to it will simply drain out. Opening it fully of course would be best, but bugs might want a drink over the winter.

Thank you! IF the outlet is on the bottom of the tank, or there's a sump, it should drain almost all the water there. What's left likely wouldn't be a freeze problem, especially if you put a bit of pink stuff in the tank as well as the lines, when you winterize. Lyle

Thank you guys. Was curious if there was any water left when drained (just scaled the coach and it was a bit higher then I thought it would be)
