Identification of Valves behind Fresh Water Drain

Hello There,

Can someone please help me identify 2 valves located behind the fresh water drain valve on a 2112 Flying Cloud ?

Valves are on the same side as the fresh water drain valve aft a foot or so (stret side)

Valves are butterfly type

Thank You

I believe they are the low point drains, one for the cold line and the other for the hot line. I use compressed air to winterize and when I open these I let them run until they sputter. I could be wrong....wouldn't be my first time.

I think aftermath is right. On mine, there is a white plastic valve with a handle that feels like it wouldn't take much to break off. It is the fresh water tank drain. Not far from it are two metal valves that look similar to the drain petcock on an older car radiator. Those are low point drains for the hot and cold water lines on that side of the trailer. I have another low point drain located near the water heater on the other side of the trailer. It is one of those chrome 90° knobs like many of the other internal cutoffs.

The two you spotted are pretty much standard. Any additional low point drains may depend on the layout of your trailer. Some have only those two.

Are the trailers still made out of aluminum? And do they still have wood floors?

They have tritanium composite flooring, and antimatter-powered air conditioners to keep up with demand on those vacations to the sun. Personally, I'd just go at night...
