Showers in caravans

Our new van has a full size shower.

We thought we would give it a go last week for the first time.
Mindful of the limitations of the small Truma combi in our Pursuit and ultimately the capacity of the Aquaroll and waste hog, I obviously drew the short straw having the last of three showers.

Absolutly no problem in getting three perfectly adequate showers. Not luxury relaxing types but perfectly adequate clean and fresh showers. Even managed the washing up straight afterwards.

Made sure the bathroom rooflight and window were open during, and wiped it down afterwards to get rid of the residual water.

So good I can see it becoming the norm for the wife and daughter, rather than trudging to the shower block. Guess who has to fill and empty the tanks?

We use ours every day when we are off in the van. Caravan showers are great with the right layout in the van.

No way would either of us use a public shower no matter how clean it looks.  Each to their own though. 

We never use anything BUT our own facilities. We bought our last two wagons, really based on what the bathroom/shower was like In addition to other things. We absolutely LOVE the Caravan we have now but if the bathroom had not been up to scratch (shower over the loo type affair/fold down washbasin etc) we would never have bought it even though everything else was spot on.

Oh, and BTW, I am the girl and the water is my job

I recently purchased 2 of your Jetstorm shower heads after seeing a 2 for 1 offer in the caravan club magazine and have been very disappointed in it performance in my caravan shower.
With a normal shower head I get 3.4L/Min and with the Jetstorm 2.8L/Min. This is a 17.6% reduction in water usage which is well short of the claimed up to 45%

The key words here are "up to".

It will probably depend to some extent on water temperature, as warm water will incorporate a different amount of air to cold. As with car manufacturers, I am sure they perform the test they quote under the most advantageous conditions.

The bathroom in our 2003 (refurbished), Lunar Ariva GTS two berth is very tiny but on our first 3 night run out a couple of weeks ago I would half fill the sink and have a real slosh down every morning. Once soaped up and rinsed with the sink water I briefly used the shower to simply rinse off. Didn't use much water from the aquaroll at all. I know this was the first time in 13 years that the shower had been used as the shower curtain was still in a sealed bag in a cupboard.

I have a Lunar Ariva GT (1998) and regularly use the shower! Find it a lot better than many boat showers I havev used over the years...!

I am quite happy to use the caravan shower as the walls have a  supposedly 'sealed casing' I might be more cautious with those which have the normal interior walls finished off with beading which are often found in the all in one units which includes sink and toilet. No doubt the latter must work but it just looks a design which could let water through without you being immediately aware.
