if the 2500 TS is anything like the Sunseeker, look for a white access hatch cover in the rear underneath. Remove the cover and it should be there along with the other winterization drains

On my SS3170, the low point drain and fresh water drain pipes are underneath the rear passenger side. The low point is capped, the fresh water drain not, the fresh water drain valve is directly above in a compartment with the filter and water pump. Behind an acess door in that compartment.

We have a Sunseeker 2300 and the drain is exactly where ShermanD described. Are you asking about the city water drain or the water tank that you manually fill? I am having a problem locating that drain, or does that water empty out via the water pump into your gray water? Thanks

If its anything like our 2400WS, the city water has a check valve at the connection point and also a check valve so that it can't back up into the Fresh water tank.

The fresh water tank has a drain, there should be two other capped lines in the access hatch. One is for the hot water line, the other for the cold water. to winterize, you need to open all three and the faucets for a complete drain. Our 2400W also has a winterization valve located in the shower. This valve has a capped hose hooked to it on one side and the water feed line hooked to the other.The hose itself is located behind a trim panel. just take out the screws holding the panel in place to access it.
By placing the valve in the winterization position, the valve opens so that you can either use an air compressor with a home made adapter to go from the air hose to 1/2" male pipe to blow air through the system and thus winterize it. You can also put a funnel on the end of the hose and pour red pop(RV antifreeze) into the system.

Hope this is of some help

water drain

Less I missed something the cold water (tank) drain is in the right rear bay and the hot water drain is under the coach. The hot water by pass is what is under the bed. Take a look at my album to see where I moved both the hot and cold water low point drain valves. Now I dont get on the ground to drain, and with the lines moved to the bumper I dont stand in the drain water either....

Dont know about models other than 2300....

In my new 2250SLE there is a storage compartment at the rear of the coach, driver's side. The electrical cord is also housed there. At the top forward side of that compartment is a round access hatch. If I unscrew and open that hatch, the fresh water tank drain valve is there.

My low point drains are found at the bottom of the coach to the left of the coach door .

Hope this helps.
