FB thread with owner showing us pictures of all the drain spouts under the trailer.  None of them have a plug.  There is glycol in the expansion tank.
Tested the hot and cold water drains, etc. 
Where would NuCamp hide a drain plug for the glycol in a very early Alde trailer?

    If it is not under the driver side  bench area, tell them to check near / under the driver side in front of the wheel under the reservoir tank.

    My 2015, though not a CS, has the glycol drain about 16" behind the driver side wheel.  That's also near where there is a plug holding 3 - 1/4" drains for water and overflow from glycol expansion tank.  The plug on my drain was not all that noticeable with road mud and crud on it.

    Perhaps they could find it from the inside. It's a smaller diameter T molded into one of the glycol hoses and extending through the floor. It's not exactly obvious, but there should be a fitting on either side where the drain is fitted into the main line. If you pull up on the hose it becomes clear there is a piece sticking through the floor.
