FW tank won’t fully drain

How do you get the FW tank to fully drain— still says 13% full— have tried tilting up& down— I have a 2017 Tab 320S

The SeeLevel monitor over estimates fresh water tank levels.  To get every drop out, roll up on blocks or the Anderson leveler on the driver’s side.

@Sharon_is_SAM how many of the Lego blocks?  Will 1 or 2 be enough?  Thanks!

You know what, raising the driver side will only help drain the residual water in the drain pipe coming off the T.  To get as much as possible out of the tank, go nose down.  Here is a picture provided by Scott.  The fresh water fill comes off the side of the tank facing forward.  To fill the tank as much as possible, go nose up.

@Sharon_is_SAM   Have already done nose up & nose down several times— monitor is still reading 13%, so nose down doesn’t get it all out apparently.  I’m going to try driving up on blocks & see if I get any more out.  Surely I’m not the only person having this issue?

Let us know the outcome.

It doesn't fully drain for me either, at least that's what Sea level tells me. What works for me is: Before I start on the way home I open the FW drain valve, the air rushing past the FW drain during the drive sucks out whatever is lef in the tank, when I get home the SeaLevel shows 0

@webers3 Thank you for the info---I have done that as well to drain the tank on the way home and mine will also read 0% by the time I get home, but if sanitizing the tank prior to use for the camping season, it won't drain fully on the driveway.  So I guess I'll have to mess around with raising the drivers side.  It really should not be this difficult to drain the FW tank.
