Purpose of this valve?

Hello! This is a 2019 Sport 16. Can anyone tell me the purpose of this valve? It is connected to the water supply line coming from the fresh water tank pump. I know there is another valve to drain the water supply lines, is this just a second one?

Yes, I believe it is a second drain for the water tank. When you want to drain your water, open both valves.

One valve simply gravity drains the fresh water tank. The other valve allows the pump to pump water out and onto the ground. For the quickest draining process open them both and turn the pump on.
