    Placing this by the door is brilliant because it allows you to rinse off muddy boots/shoes/feet when coming in. If you have a dog you could shower your dog as well if it is muddy. This is so smart.

    This is one of the most original ways I've seen to include a private shower and toilet area in a small build. Great job!

    It's great you showed the whole process of installing the shower. It's hard to find good shower tutorials out there and this is one of the best. Thank you and hope you're both enjoying Van Life!

    Very ingenious design, beautifully made. Well done and safe journeys in your travels. From an 84 year old Scotsman who has owned five different motorhomes.

    Very clever! Also, if you come in with muddy boots, simply blast them with the shower, and the muddy water drains away. The rest of the van stays clean.

    The shower / toilet is a fantastic idea. It takes no extra space either. Brilliant. 😊

    OMG! THIS IS BRILLIANT! I'm in the process of designing a van build for small van...this is a great idea...a lil nervous about cutting the floor of the van, I would need to look and see how it is structured...but you gave me a great idea. Good Job you guys!

    • @wownewstome6123
      @wownewstome6123 Год назад

      I love their shower/toilet idea, too! Just be careful with making openings in the floor. It needs to be gas tight, otherwise toxic Carbon Monoxide is drawn in while driving. Other air pollutants, too, from car exhaust.

    • @wownewstome6123
      @wownewstome6123 Год назад

      Another great bathroom build is in this vid: Family of 4 VAN TOUR ! UNBELIEVABLE Open Layout - Shower, Toilet, Screen Doors! | Van Life Personally, I would try to also use the shower space for hanging clothes when not in use. That is, if I could rig up a way to effortlessly pivot the hanging rod to outside the shower when needed. Better: use the space for pots, pans, and other items not harmed by humidity.

    Excellent, I designed mine like this but haven't built it yet, and I have never seen any other like it, so it's a relief to see how great the shower pan looks. Im using a normal pan so not sure if the height will be a pain to line up with the floor. This is a great alternative. Thanks for making this video.

    What a brilliant idea! Uses the "deadspace" of the entry for something useful AND gives you somewhere to step into and put wet clothes/shoes on, to drain, if it's been raining, and it will not destroy the floor of the van

  • @marlenesewell8492

    I like your idea would love to see more idea's out side the box....because face it these tiny homes are small and I hardly see too many idea's out side the box everyone always for the most part does the exact same because we were considering the layout for the normal setting.what really needs to happen is like you spend how long in a shower really.,that's what on average 20 to 3o minutes exactly showering and for the rest of the 24 hour's it stands unused very needed but still for the most part unused.,,,,,,as well as your bed for the most part at least their are some very nice designs to get the beds out of the way and back fairly quickly if you have the space but the shower would live to see more designs like this one.
    Thank you for sharing

      @alternative_lives  Год назад

      So far no issues, but I also didn't use the shower so much since I always had the possibility to use the external one. The only downside I could find so far is dust and sand collecting underneath... it needs to be cleaned before use otherwise it could clog.

    @rorychivers8769 2 года назад

    This is a really cool idea to squeeze more space out of no space, I think I'd feel a bit weird showering and using the loo in what is technically also my kitchen though...
    I've had an idea knocking about in my head for having the rear end bed board fold up into a full size partition wall, so you can hide a full size bathroom in a tiny van. All your amenities like hand sink, vanity cabinet, shower bracket etc would be mounted under the bed board and fold up.
    I don't think it would be technically that difficult, it's whether or not it would work well in practice I'm not sure about.
    The only drawback I can see is that it would be a pain in the ass if you woke up in the middle of the night and needed to pee... you'd have to offload your significant other onto the floor to gain access :D
