OUTSIDE SHOWER

[TRAILRIDER125]

Maybe this is a stupid question so please don't laugh.
Exactly what is an "outside shower"? I only ask because I just looked at an ad for a class C and it mentioned an outside shower. And I see the outside shower located on the outside of the RV. But the inside pictures show a bathroom with a toilet and what looks like a hand held shower head as well. Whats the point? Why would I want an outside shower anyway?

Sometimes with kids grand kids around we use it a lot. When just me and the wife not often. Sometimes when just me and fishing it gets used now and then also. Some of those poor soles who tent camp 🙂 when fishing have used mine to shower off.

All our RV's have had one and have never used it. Although one person here posted a great idea and that was to wash dishes outside with it. makes more sense I think than washing off your feet. If someone was really, really dirty, then it would make sense to wash off with it, or at least rinse off with it.

Outside shower: You can also hang the 'official' black camping water bag in the sun to heat up for your shower. 🙂

Great when Boondocking and not wanting to fill up the GW tank with either shower water or dish water. We use it to hook up to our portable outdoor kitchen to wash dishes and we use it with our shower tent.

We have one. As said above it can be useful for washing dishes and other things, like feet. We only use it at the times we don't have a city water connection. Then I use a Y connector and a separate hose.

One thing, if you have one and don't use it, you still need to make sure and winterize it! I forgot the first year we had it and had to replace it in spring because it the ice cracked the seam!

Works for me!

I thought outside showers were to keep from having close neighbors. 🙂

No enclosure, has a similar set up as inside shower, faucets and a hose W/ hand held shower head to rinse off.

We use the outside shower to wash dishes,
wash feet,
wash the dog,
wash the kids,
oh, and on occasion to take a shower.

One benefit among many is the water doesn't fill the gray tank.

An outside shower is a showerhead on a hose usually located in one of the outside storage areas. It us normally used to wash-off feet or shoes. Can be used to rinse off after a swim also. Not normally used for a "real shower".

To rinse off with before going in RV.....kids feet, sand from beach trip, wash the dog etc.

It is a hand held shower head with cold/hot water knobs.

IF you pull a Robin Williams RV type of stunt......sewer mess....you can use it to hose yourself off :B


YES....inside is a full bathroom facility...sink/shower/toilet

We use ours to wash off sandy feet and to rinse the dog after he's been in a lake or the ocean.
