Where Is It?!! lol

I am new at this camper thing. Our dad died in October, and left us. Before he got ill (dementia and asbestosis) he wanted to make sure we had a place to live (my younger sister and I). So he gave us this camper.
So I am the ‘tech support’ (I get to fix all the broken parts, in other words), and I have no idea where the water heater is located, or any other part I might need to find later on. There is also a pipe for gray, and one for black water. Is there a hose that is ‘y’ shaped to hook up to both of these-or do I need two hoses for them-we are going to be in an rv park.
I know I can depend on you folks here for help-I would just like some peace of mind with all this.
Thank you, in advance, for any help/advice you can give me!

I could find nothing that would show me the drains on your model trailer. I'm assuming you have two outlets. You can take 2 short hoses and run them into a drain hose Y (sold online or at RV stores) then another sewer hose to connect to the park drain connection.

Water heater will be behind a small panel on the exterior of the trailer. It will be maybe 14"x14" with louvred vents and generally a little pull ring you pull out, rotate then pull the door off.

Don't know your situation but there are lots of folks on this forum full of knowledge and willing to help. You need a crash course in not only your specific trailer, the layout etc. but how RVs work in general. Let us know what is going on and what's about to happen in order. An RV takes some specialized knowledge to be able to operate, setup and get prepared for.

If you can post pics of the sides, I’m sure we can tell you what is where. Welcome to the forum

Pennylee. What Sourdough said but forgot to add, when you are hooked up only open the tanks and drain them when they are full. Do not just open them and leave them open like you are in your house. The Black tank especially needs to be full, or near so, to keep the dreaded "poop pyramid" from forming. Maybe others will pipe in who are more articulate than me . Not sure my explanation will make sense.
Welcome to the forum!

Congrats on getting your camper. Sorry for the way it had to happen though. Meanwhile, ...

Here's a 2016 video of your make and model camper as a simple introduction to what your camper is all about. By the way ... YouTube is your friend!
