IBC off grid outdoor shower | hipcamp and house build

[@MrCPPG]

This is BRILLIANT!! Mr Heater makes a propane shower with its own pump so all you need is water.

Thanks! This one does too, but I didn't need it because I ran the hose through the bush from a water tank higher on the hill.

someone else doing this ibc shower idea used a pallet in the bottom for standing on which looked really good. i like the open top and the open doorway. nice bush touch

[@cornerstonevalley]

Thanks Daniel,
Yeah, I think a plastic pallet would be a great idea for the bottom, timber ones might get a bit foul.

Im making my IBC shower now. I like your idea with the pressurized tank. How about a larger compressed air tank, 100 psi ish, with a 40 psi regulator plumbed into the water tank.

[@cornerstonevalley]

Thanks! Yep, it'd totally work, good idea. I was just seeing how far I could go without using power. All depends on your setup. Good luck!

[@SamKing-h8p]

Look at 12 Volt water pumps and a 12 Volt deep cycle battery to pump water through your on demand heater. That's working well for us. Throw a Solar Trickle Charger on the battery to keep it topped off.

[@cornerstonevalley]

Thanks reddog! That sounds good, I was just trying to spend as little money as I could for this project. I like the idea of the trickle charger though, so the battery doesn't get cooked.

Awesome!

[@cornerstonevalley]

Thanks!

That is an annoying bird

[@cornerstonevalley]

Ah, the joys of living off grid and close to nature. Permaculture and the birds go hand in hand.
