Hi All - I have a newbie question for you - we have a 2017 183G - new to us - under the dinette seats is all the plumbing - there is 1 hose that is not connected to anything - is that normal and what is it for?

That hose is used to syphon antifreeze into you water system when winterizing, it should have a valve connected to it.

Trace it along and see if it goes to a valve, if not then it is not the antifreeze hose and thus I'm not sure what it is.

is it connected to anything on either end? may just be left over from construction.
