I own a 2007 Canyon Star 3644 and am winterizing. I can't seem to find the low point drains. The owners manual isn't helpful. Anyone know where they are? Thanks!

The low point drains should be in the water/sewer utility bay. They should be labeled. On my coach there is a third drain for the water tank. On my coach I must reach way in, behind all the white plastic and near the floor to find it. I can see it only with a flash light, but I can turn the valve with a full arm extension.

The low point drains do not drain out all the water. They are the lowest access point in the water lines.

This is a point worth repeating. There can and probably is water still in various piping locations after you open the low point drains. Blow and/or pink it unless you are sure (by physical inspection) ALL water drains out of the pipes.

Thanks for your responses. I found them right where you said they were. Just hadn't looked beyond the plastic stuff. My winterizing plan drains the low point drains, the fresh tank drain, and the hot water drain. Then RV antifreeze pumped through the whole system bypassing the water heater.
