Wow they told you it has a drain and then they sold you an alternator? The alternator charges the system and seldom does it cause a draw. In today's cars there are many electrical things that could cause the draw. What you need to do is find it. If you have an amp meter you need to hook it up and let the car sit for a few minutes, called sleep mode" when you see the amps stop moving its asleep. Start taking fuses out and watch for it drop down. Then you know what is causing the draw.
