2016 Sunseeker 3010DS fresh water drain question

I have a 2016 Sunseeker 3010 DS and next to my fresh water drain tube is an open tube that is dripping water. What is this? I have been running my heat pump so I am thinking that it may be the drain from that?

Thanks for any response.

I suspect it's the fresh water tank's overflow tube.

On my 2015 3010DS there are 2 tubes that come out the bottom behind the rear tire. One is blue and is the fresh water tank drain the valve for it is inside the door in the compartment. This tube looks open when seen from under the MH. The other tube is red and has a cap on it, this one is the Hot water low point drain.

The vent tube/overflow for the fresh water tank is right next to the fresh water fill.

This unit does not have a cold water low point drain so I have to pull the lines off the water pump to drain the cold water lines.

I have a 2016 3010DS. The red line is the hot water low point drain, when you bypass the water heater, it also drains down the cold water. The blue line is the drain for your fresh water tank, the valve is next to the water pump (look for the valve on the blue line).

There should be a screw on cap for that drain hose. Also, running the heat pump is same as the air conditioning, water drips onto the roof.

The picture is showing the fresh water drain valve in the closed position and the other red drain tube next to it.

If anybody wonders what the wiring is for, it goes to my water alarm. Occasionally the water pump leaks and it alerts us.
