New 2020 364BHL Water Drain

I can not find any "hoses" or dedicated low point drain valves on our new unit. It does have a white plastic slide style gate valve directly under where I assume the water tank is at the rear of the unit. Is this what Keystone is doing on the late model unit? I forgot to ask at PDI as it was cold, windy and snowing.
My old rig just had a braided hose with a cap on it.
Thanks

Well I crawled under it last night and took a couple of pictures.
I am assuming the pex pipes are the low points. Is the white valve the water drain?
thanks for looking

Well I spent a few minutes on online chatting with the factory and got my answers/confirmation.
The red and blue pex lines are the low points and the white slider is the fresh water dump. I hope this helps anyone else that might have the same questions.

Just to add on to this...what actual parts have folks used to convert the low point drains to have valves? I've heard of it being done but actual parts used comes up vague.
I went to 2 hardware stores yesterday and nothing jumped out at me. Mine have the screw on caps, 1/2" size.

That's on my future mod list. I am assuming I can get a "shark bite" type of valve for them, But my rig is at the dealer getting some warranty items attended to. You might search the "What have you done to your trailer" thread also

Thanks!
Any issues getting them on? Mine 2 lines are practically siamesed...even the caps rub while R&Ring them.
