Title: popup shower
Post by: wandrr79 on Aug 19, 2007, 04:32 PM
I'm looking to put a shower in my 2000 Utah. Does anybody have the measurements for the combination unit that Fleetwood uses? Actually, I'll take any manufacturer's unit. (I don't know if they all use the same.) I'm trying to figure out if it will be easier to use one of the manufactured units, or just fit my CP, to a shower basin and build a box. Thanks for the help.

Someone did a really neat mod using a commercially available houshold laundry tub as a base for a shower.  It looke great & worked really well, as it was all one piece and the drain was already installed ( no possible leakage). Plumb it, hang a shower curtain, and you're all set.  make a laminate top to set on top. and you have an extra counter or storage while traveling.

now, where was that thing....?

here's one - I'm sure if you search, there's a few more out there...  good ideas seem to get borrowed and take on a life of their own.....

Price wise it would be less expensive to build your own shower.  If you are handy with tools you should be able to do it without too many problems.  :)

A while back on this site they had a tech article about building your own shower. You could always get a heat-exchanger and plum it into the vehicle water cooling system. Add a pump , strainer , hose ,  shower head , & viola you have a on-board shower on the towing vehicle , with hot water even.

Thanks for the replies. The homemade setups look as good as the manufactured one. I've got a lot of ideas floating around in my head, now.
