one of those looks lihe a pull to drain for winter drain see if you can find under the moter home two drain tubes coming down through the floor . when you fill with water turn diierent valves of f and on that way you can find out what turns what off and on . THAT IS the same Pluming and fittings used in mobile homes it is not too hard to fix or get parts for when you start your water heater and hot water check to see which pipes get warm

You can see the two "T" handle drains in this photo. These are for draining the system for winterization. Pull the handles UP to drain the lines.

The white "T" fitting toward the upper left looks like a "T" valve. It should be the same as the "T" valve in the next photo (not sure why it was mounted with the valve handle facing the wrong way??)

Anyway, these are used to bypass water past the water heater.

When winterizing, drain the entire system, including the water heater. Run antifreeze in the system so it gets into the water heater. then turn these valves so water no longer goes through the water heater.

Personally, I don't like this approach to bypassing the water heater, as it can leak water into the water heater, it then freezes in the winter, and breaks the liner in the water heater.

IMHO - If you use the water heater - then leave it connected normally, and go through the normal winterization process (drain the water heater and run antifreeze through it)

If you don't use the water heater (I don't use mine) then do this:

1) Winterize the water heater as done normally -- i.e. make sure its drained completely, and then run some antifreeze through it.

WINTERIZATION

2) Then - Remove the water pipes from the water heater and install a bypass tube.

3) Place plugs on the water heater pipes.
