Mystery Water Valves on 2012 Mini Lite 2109S

Hi,

I have a 2012 Mini Lite 2109S. in the left front side pass-thru storage resides the water pump, against the front wall. The pic below shows two valves, one is open and one is closed. I'm not exactly sure what each valve controls, and I find nothing in the Rockwood manual.

As you can see, the right one is open and the left one is closed. However, everything seems to be functioning fine as near as I can tell. But I would like to know exactly what each valve is for. Can someone who can specifically identify each valve, kindly give me an assist? It would be greatly appreciated.

I think there to winterize the system.
Where does each end of hose go?

Thanks very much. I thought that was a possibility, but I would like to know specifically what each valve does, if anyone knows.

One allows fresh water to flow throughout unit while open then close it and open the other to draw in antifreeze.

Thank you. So let me make sure that I have this correct -- to winterize, I would close the now open fresh water valve, and then open the valve to winterize (which is now closed). Is that correct?

Where would one draw the anti-freeze into the system?

Correct!
The hose should be where you hook up fw connection?
