Compass fresh water drain

I have looked for the drain for the fresh water tank on my 2017 Thor Compass 23TR and can't seem to locate it. The manual doesn't help and Thor wants $29.00 to answer the question, "Where is it located?" Can someone help?

Wait? What how does Thor want $29 to answer the question? All my interactions with them have been free? (including asking for all diagrams and engineering drawings)

website says "ask a Thor technician." They take your information and question and then demand $29, up to $59 depending on "basic ----premium" service you want. May be hijacker website but that's where I ended up when I tried to ask for technical assistance from Thor.

Thanks Mike, I finally found the drain. The drain outlet tubing is located above the compartment used to drain wastewater. It is not visible so you have to feel around for it. I'm thinking of putting an extension so water doesn't get into places I don't want.

Your question must've gotten hijacked by some scam individual. For others that try that DO NOT pay for technical help. Help is always free here!

Yep.. its free here - and its even free to talk to a Thor tech.. I've only done that by phone - and didn't take long at all to get to someone that could help point me in the right direction.
