Hey folks. I have the 356RLT and was wondering if there's an exposed valve somewhere for draining the FW tank? I could probably drain it by turning the pump on and setting the nautilus to dry camping and run the faucets I suppose but wasn't sure if I could do it another way. I looked in the manual, didn't see anything about draining the FW tank. I see some other valves underneath the camper but nothing that would drain the FW tank.
Thx.

The other Valves should be low point drains for H & C plumbing (red & blue tubing), the third valve, usually a bit away from the others is your tank drain. There have been reports where the FW tank valve wasn't poked thru the underbelly. You might be able to find it by feeling around the underbelly near the vent line, which doesn't have a valve.

Here's a picture of my low point drains, fresh water overflow and fresh water drain. Hope it helps!

Don't have your model, but on my 277RLT, the FW drain is behind the LR tire, just far enough forward that I have to crawl part way underneath to get to it. G*d forbid they ran the line an extra 2' to =behind= the tire... Lyle

View AttachmentI have those low point drains and I do see another hose that may be the fresh water overflow but don't see anything that looks like your FW drain valves. I've opened up everything underneath and virtually nothing has come out. Perhaps KZ didn't poke holes through the bottom cover for my FW drain. My LCI panel indicates my FW tank is 1/3 full, maybe the sensor is bad on the FW tank but I think I did indeed put several gallons in the FW tank a while ago. Lord knows the black tank sensors are always messed up. Thanks for the pics everyone.

You're probably right, I've read a couple of posts where that was the case.

lovegolf44 LCI panels a notorious for bad readings, but if possible an your dealer or a Kz dealer is near you, you might go over an see if they have your model in stock, this is just hundred to one shot but you never know .... Thus you could look under the model they have an see if it's the same ... Also like some of the other posters have stated look behind the left wheels, like Lyle ours is behind the left front wheel, but I can reach ours unlike Lyle were he has to crawl under his trailer ... As well it has been posted an know that some drains have not been pushed all the way thought the underbelly, not many but some Chuck
