Who asked you!
Trust me, there was an AMAZING amount of time and effort put into finding them.
Stupidest thing, the 100 times I've been under that coach adjusting brakes and just checking stuff over and I never saw them nor did Gman...

So my 2010 has low point drains? My dealers tech couldn't even find them? Why would the factory indicate that model does not have low point drains....use the outdoor shower? I'll be heading over to the dealer to have a look....thanx guys.

Our dealership was NO better when asked. Their answer at first......"they're there". Then when they could not find them, they said it's the O/S shower. When I looked at my shower this weekend and realized it sat at least 12" above the in floor piping, I called again and said it can't be.
Oh well, took some digging but we found'em. You know, a small sticker/label outside on the wall of the coach would be helpful to advise the new owner.

If it helps, basicaly ours are right below the bathroom vanity/pipeing (if you can visualize wher that is from the outside) and hang out the bottom right beside that bronze colored skirting. You can't see them, you'd have to lie right underneath. Once I had a suspect location I basicaly ran my hand along the skirting and ran into them.
Yeah, a little sticker like they do on the dump valves would go a mile or two here...
I did basicaly use the outside shower in conjunction with compressed air to blow the system out, once I found the LPD last night I opened them and about a shot glass of water came out of both of them, so the compressed air method & shower as a drain worked. What water there was in those LPD wouldn't have been anough to cause trouble at all IMHO.
JJBrown- Let us know how you make out

Mine's a 320BHS...very similar to your 318.
I use 2g total -- 1½ through all the faucets (including the outdoor shower), ½ goes into the p-traps.

I have heard that letting the gray and black tanks dry out is a bad idea, and I have not seen anyone say anything about winterizing the tanks themselves. Is there enough expansion room in the tanks to not worry about it?
I do not worry about the tanks, after i flush them clean i leave +/- 2gal of water with some laundry detergent and water softener. there is plenty room for the ice to expand.
For the Op, i used 1gal today when i preped my TT.
