Where is it and how often do you drain the fresh water? After every trip? How about the Hot water tank? Drain that too after every trip? Thanks for your help! I'm a newbie.Embarassed

I'm not sure exactly where it is on the 19SB but in general if you look under one of the bench seats you should see the fresh water tank.  There should then be a small valve on the outlet side of the tank that has a small tee handle that you pull up to open the valve to drain the tank to the outside.  I drain it at the end of every trip to prevent things from growing it and to lighten the load.

I also drain the hot water tank for the same reasons.  You can drain it by opening both the hot and cold drain lines under the trailer and then opening both the hot and cold handles on the faucets.  You don't have to take out the plug/anode rod on the hot water heater to drain it.

Thanks! I found that the board over the freshwater tank and heater was screwed in and was afraid to look under there. I contacted Sherley Miller at KZ and she supplied me with the floorplan of the 19sbt (which is like the 19sb). It was under the seat and all I had to do was lift up on the white handle and waaa laaa, it started to drain. The pict states 2010 but 2011 has the same dimensions. Again, it is the 19sbt, not sb(To save the image on your desktop for easier viewing, Right click on image below, then choose "save image as" in the drop down list.
