Fresh Water Fill?

I have a 1993 Grande Villa.
Does anyone know where the fill valve is for the fresh water tank?

It may be under the sink in the bathroom.

On my 95 U280 the water fill valve is under the sink.
However, you can do yourself a favor and speed up the fill operation with a minimum of work.
I, and others, have added a direct fill fitting to the fresh water tank, a few bucks worth of parts make it a no brainer. Bill W made me a fitting, I drilled a hole near the top of the tank, used tygon tubing to a spot on the water bay panel.  Now filling the tank takes fifteen minutes compared with the 45 minutes before.

You don't say what model you have, so there will be a lot of wrong as well as right answers here, as not all models are the same.

On the 1993 U240 the fill valve is in the hinged compartment in the center back of  the "step up" to the driver's area.  Left valve is the fill valve, right is the "drain potable water tank" valve.

If you have a 1993 U-225, as I do, you will find the same water fill valve location and layout as Brett's U-240.

You might want to fill out your profile, with your coach model, build number and some sort of city location.  You are going to be amazed by the help from the forum members.  They might have either your coach model, or they had one, or helped someone before with the same model, or live near by and will come to help.
