It is portable, compact and easy to pack or store away.
This portable solar shower is ideal for camping, fishing, hunting, by the backyard lake, pool or at the beach - anytime an indoor shower is not available.
Directions for Use:
1.) Fill with clear untreated water
2.) Place on flat surface in full sun for at least 3 hours
3.) When warm hang from any high anchor point like a strong tree branch
4.) Open the top fill hole to prevent vacuum.
5) Open the bottom spout , gravity causes the water inside to spray down. Turn spout off to conserve hot water as needed.
No fuel required, a safe environmentally friendly way to heat water.
Combine with the reflective panels of the Solar Oven sold in our sidebar to improve effectiveness. Solar panels can be used to speed up heating or assist on partly cloudy days. Care should be taken not to OVERHEAT or MELT when using solar reflective panels.
Cheap enough to buy a couple to maximize camp hot water.
Not for drinking water storage.
Clean before using and before long term storage. Simply Rinse the shower with warm water and 1 table spoon baking soda.
