Anybody know exactly where the drain to empty the fresh water tank on a 2019 coachmen galleria is? Floor plan A if it matters

Hey Stan,

How did the Galleria do in the Florida heat?

Thanks!

Stan, expect some questions & problems, but also hope they are all this small. I'd suggest you get the phone number to Coachmen Customer Support and give them a call. Otherwise, you can start turning any water valves underneath until you find the correct low point drain for the fresh water (just don't have the hot water on and don't be hooked up to city water).

Did pretty good, we had hookups for our two stays in Florida, was 100 deg both days, had to leave the A/C on the first night, barely got by with just the fan the second night (near the Georgia border). Driving down the road the cab area stays comfortable but the back is much hotter, I can see why some people use a curtain.

We finally got it figured out, the tank shut-off (under the driver's side bed) was turned off, must have come from the factory that way. The dealer obviously didn't test the water pump. Once we turned that on the pump worked and we could drain the fresh water into the gray tank using the faucets. Accessing the valve requires unscrewing the bed board.
Still have some other issues to work through but that was the big one.
