Are there drains under the hot water heater? I do not see any, but I do drain the water heater every year.
Henry,

I suggest you cap the fresh water drain. It's an avenue for bugs, etc. to get up into the tank.

Keystone doesn't make it easy to find these things. My Cougar sits up pretty high so the drains are easy to find and reach.

The hot water heater drains on the outside of the trailer at the bottom of the heater. It's a plug that you remove the cover panel, and unscrew the plug with a socket wrench. It probably will have an anode on it. I usually just remove the plug after I bypass the water heater and leave it laying there in the bottom of the access area. In the spring when I prep for the season, the plug is right where I need it to be.
