Winterizing our 2019 Thor Chateau 28E and we cannot find our low point drain valves. Does anyone know where they are on this year and model? We,ve checked several places suggested (ie under refrigerator, under dinette, under bed) and still cannot find them. Can anyone suggest what they might look like?
 
On a Thor, look above the PEX tail pipes

They may be silver 90 degree valves like these:

Or they may be pull-to-open poppet valves with a stainless steel pull ring like this:

Try pulling out some lower kitchen cabinet drawers. Our plumbing to the sink is under there, along with the water pump.

As ACE mentioned above, ours are the tiny "poppet" style valves with tiny T-handles. They're sort of buried in cutouts in the floor under some PEX pipes.

The valves have short PEX stubs which run through the floor under the valves. Note that ours started leaking... probably from debris stuck in them. I installed plastic 1/4 turn valves on the outside stubs, and now just leave the inside T-handle valves open.
