    Little house customs? I bought a couple things a few years back(their grey tank mod just adding a tube between the tank and vent didn’t help much).
    They lost a couple hundred or so dollars business from me last year. Emailed a couple times with questions. They never answered back. Thought about the shower mod. Ended up just painting the corner sink adapting my hose from my geyser shower system.
    So yes, shower system, full grey tank mod kit, couple more shelves. Couple other items. Sorry LHC, should have replied!
    I believe little house customs sold the pump switch guard also. Thought they did. Don’t see it. Anyway the one you have looks more professional than the one that was already on mine.
    Great mods. Wish I had the facility and skills. Got the spirit deluxe. Had some ideas, just not the capabilities full timing to do them.

      Yeah , I thought about that vent modification. Didn’t do it. I’m in no hurry anyway. I did cut a port hole in the top of the water tank . I can dry it out after use. Moved that stupid electric cut out switch to inside cabinet with a better quality one as well . Camper on ! 👍😁

      I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience with LHC. I know Covid really hurt a lot of small businesses. I'm sure they had the effects of it, too. We've never had any bad experiences with them at all! But, everyone is different.

      Sorry to hear about you experience with LHC. I have never had any issues with them. They have been very helpful. The grey tank mod you motioned only assists in allowing captured air to escape from the top of the tank. this allows for increased tank volume. If you are really looking for a grey tank improvement I would suggest the Fast Gray Kit by LHC. It will speed up your dump time and reduce mean glares by waiting campers at the dump stations.

    I am very impressed with this setup. What a great way to make an older Casita look modern with all the conveniences of the newer models. I do have a question: what is the length of the cushion area on the converted dinette?

      @@lisasander4005 The newer ones have ventless carbon filter hoods that are much lower profile. Therefor we don't have an exterior vent so the porthole window isn't something I'd consider but for those with the vent it's an awesome idea. The new ventless hood is what we have in ours (2024 model) and it isn't an eye sore like the older ones but honestly we will likely never use it because we don't cook inside.

      I would not actually consider it an eye sore. But , we rarely cook if ever inside anyway . Plus the ceiling vent is three feet away if you got some smoke . Good luck with your new Casita ! I love my 2020 unit !!👍

    Did you ever find out who it was that sells those water pump switch guards? I'd also like to know more about how you brought the outside electric switch for the water heater inside to that panel. Lastly, how did you go about attaching the planters and small shelves to the partition?

    Pretty cool!! I had started a skoolie project but had to give it up due to renovating my house, apparently that’s too much for me, two major projects but I dig the escape, but I am looking at the casita. It seems like modifying it and fixing it up fiberglass rvs seems like a good and doable challenge. Have you thought about ever adding a small generator? I am thinking of adding one up front on the back part of the tongue. Just curious.
