Hello Everyone,
Hopefully an easy 2 questions to answer:
There are two drains before the water pump per the diagram:
The item on the right in the first picture below, appears to be a threaded 1/2 inch male plug that was in the bottom of the tank and was accessed through a cut out in the metal under layer; second picture below:
The item on the left in the picture shown above and below again , sorry for the redundancy, is the drain coming from the street side of the trailer before the plumbing from the tank connects with the water pump, shore water intake and then feeds the trailer.
Question 1, concerns the drain on the street side? Do I need it or can it be skipped?
I will install drains at the tank and at the front of the trailer ( I left out the drain that is present at the front of the trailer after the pump and shore lines connect in my diagram).
Q2 is just: are the check valves required and where do the go? After leaving the fresh water tank? After exiting shore water entry and exiting the water pump? How many do I need?
Exited to say I am buying parts and supplies for the rebuild, restore and remodel. This post will help clarify these important parts questions.
Thanks in advance for sage replies
