Outside Shower

kids/dogs/mountain bikes/sandy feet/dishes/dirty mats/clean fish.....endless possibilities

The hose on those showers is 3/8". Kind of an odd size for garden hose fittings. I went to a home brewing supply and they all seem to carry 3/8" to male and female garden hose brass fittings. Cut your hose and put it back together with them. After that, you can split it apart, inset a garden hose in between and if the hose is long enough, clean your windshield!

My Winnie’s outside shower works great on bicycle, feet or the whole me. You are “missing” a complete shower with swimming trunks on...for men. Any military service? Granted drainage can be an issue and I don’t when it’s not appropriate.

I bought a new to me TT last fall that has an outside shower.

About the only use I can see it would be good for is washing sand off of the grand kids feet at the beach.

That's what we used to use ours for so our boys wouldn't track sand into the camper ... had them stand in a Rubbermaid bin so the ground didn't become a mucky mess, then tossed it into the foliage surrounding our campsite. Very useful for that purpose. :B

I've never seen an outside shower on any trailer with 3/4" GH fittings, AFAIK they're all 1/2" NPT, just like the rest of the camper.

We love our outside shower. We camp a lot in Florida, so rinsing off after going to the beach is great. My husband is a cyclist (bicycle) and likes to rinse off after a long ride. I've washed the dishes outside when we didn't have a sewer connection. We replaced our short shower hose with a longer one from Lowes. It won't fit when the hatch is closed, so I just disconnect it for travel.

It's good for clearing out campsites near you. Get naked, go out and take a shower, you will soon have a large area of the CG to yourself.
Or, a cellmate. :B

We use ours all the time.....we camp almost exclusively at the beach and the dog gets sandy.

I put a 12 food standard shower hose on ours. (Home Depot). Direct fit. No fittings or modifications necessary.

Wash the dogs when they rub all in something dead while we hike the trails.

I rarely ever use it. Don't really need it at all.
