I have a lunar odyssey 2001 and I am in the process of draining the excess water for winter, I have done the toilet but cannot find the pipe outlet that go to the sinks and shower etc I thought it would have been underneath..... this in our first winter so its all new and i dont have any leaflets that came with the van. thank you.
Am not familiar with the Odyssey, I'm sure some one will be along that is. Meanwhile, the drain valve will probably be under one of the beds close to the hot water tank and will be in the form of a little tap/valve in the water pipe. If the van has an on board cold water tank there will be another one to drain this, if not probably only the one. Don't forget to open the taps, if mixer type then in a central position to allow venting to the tanks and prevent air locking............Mick
our drain tap is under the seat that is next to where you put the water pump into the barrel.
it is a little lever that is laid horizontal on top of a water tank and all you do is put it in the upright position and you will hear the water start to drain out.
open all your taps to make sure you get all the air and water out.
we usually do this everytime we leave a site to return home. you never know if you will be going out again before winter. better to be safe than sorry.
Plus take the shower head off, leave pipe in the shower tray. make sure all taps are wide open,Taps(central).I blow the water out the pipes with a small compressor. You be amazed how much more water comes out the water works.

Its not a hangover, its wine flu!
I have a lunar albeit a different model and year. I would imagine your drain tap/lever is under the front nearside bed. It is a yellow lever which you lift up, then leave all taps open in the central position. This will drain the most of the water out.
If you want to get more out have a look at this website.

Found the tap in question in fact it was a blue lever. It took a while to drain so I left it overnight and went back this morning to put the lever in the original position.
We did the same on are lunar . Bought one of those floe drainage kits. My god we were so surprised . We nearly got a additional 3 pints of water out if all of are pipes. Would defo recommend this bit of kit.

Have tried all through the paper work and it says nothing.
Have written to Lunar sales but we do not want to wait too long as it is in storage 30mile away as they stopped us from storing it at home in sheltered housing even made sure by putting the 6ft x 8ft x 2 panels of fencing right down the side we had the FC coming in. Now on ly a 3ft gate hence the 30 mile run.
The one you will need has the same connection as the one on your pump which goes from your aqua roll into the Caravan.
If you look on the website you will see 3 fittings, mine is the pistol type.Watch the video and it explains everything you need to know.
