Hot water shower....this is much better.

Take a look at the gallery in this link.
Perfect for the campsite bathing experience!

Maybe Paddy could bring one over in his lorry.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem.

If it would take ice instead of burning wood then would be ideal for beers  :-\

It looks a bit like the shower at Sebring JPC explained to me, except the charcole is replaced by wood, and it's above the ground instead of underneath it. It's quite a simple structure, all you need is bendable piping, a central heating pump and a fireplace. We already have a 1000 litre water container, and I'll have a look at the price of the piping. Fireplace is created very easily :)

Not really Randy. Bought a 265 US Gallon water tank (new) for $50,- off the internet. I have a spare pump as I replaced my floor heating at home. So all I need is piping and a fire place. Shower blocks can be built from scrap material. Piping will be another $50,- I guess, so my amount is slightly different.

It's also the satisfying prospect of having a proper shower at MB I think :)

Precisely, except the one in Sebring was running off mains pressure.

With the amount of power we will have heating water by an electric heater will surely be easiest?

Serious suggestion - If you're taking a large genny, get hold of a proper domestic immersion tank with a 2kW heater.

If you use the type with the header tank / ball float valve in the top, you can connect to mains water.

You need a "direct combination tank".

Or just use the ACO provided shower block like Team Zarse does. It's not that bad you know!

Nah, I've got a better idea. This way you only use what you need :)

And Andy, we're building a shower unit, not a heated pool. Last year's temperatures proved to me we don't need heated pools.
