Shower Where water is at a premium

This seems like shower made for situations where water is at a premium, like the RV.

It more or less promises to increase the humidity in your rig--which could be good or bad depending on where you are parked.

It looks like you can't order the hand held wand alone but it comes as part of the kit. With the thing priced at $350 for "preorders" it should be a good product. A couple of years ago we replaced the standard RV shower head with the Body Spa by Oxygenics from a vendor at Escapade and we love it. I hated to shower in the present RV until we made the change but this was a major improvement.

I put the same shower head as Kirk did in my fiver. They really do work! I am real happy with mine. It seems like they have more water flow, but they don't.

Remember that old saying "if water is scarce shower with a friend"

That would be rather difficult in the little shower my fiver has....... Besides, my wife probably would be against me showering with a friend and not her.

We are thinking about getting the Ecocamel, supposedly better than the Oxygenics. Lot of people very happy with it.

Another vote for Oxygenics shower head. Have had ours since the summer of 2009. Poor water pressure at a campground? No problem.

It needs at least 35psi of pressure. Don't think my water pump puts out that much.

Most RV water pumps are set to shut off at 45# but the low pressure would depend upon how much water volume is being asked for. If it is only the shower, then it probably is enough.

I use a standard RV shower head and have no problems taking a shower with about 1 gallon of water. I turn on the propane heater and set a timer. Depending on temperatures, the hot water is about right after about 20 minutes. It takes about a pint or so of water down the drain for the hot water to reach the shower. I wet down, turn off the water, soap up, and then rinse with a slow stream of water.

JimK: Catch that pint or so going down the drain and use it elsewhere - dishes or flushing the toilet.

In my last van I would turn on the water heater and set the timer for 10 minutes. Then turn off the heater and take a shower using only the hot water faucet. Perfect temp and nothing extra down the drain.

QUITE! I've had Oxygenics in my rigs for years and have always been very happy with them.. until I tried the Ecocamel. Either one is going to be a massive improvement over most stock showerheads. I consider it almost a 'must do' upgrade for anyone that spends any amount of time in their rig.

If you already have an oxygenics, getting an Ecocamel probably isn't worth the price unless you 'really' need the extra water savings, but they are so similar in price I would recommend it over an oxygenics for a first time upgrade. (the pro versions 3 different water pattern settings is quite nice as well).
