Coleman Hot Water Shower, 2 Years Later (Product Review)

Поделиться

  • Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
  • The Coleman Hot Water on Demand is a portable hot water heater that uses a very simple system involving a water pump and propane cylinder fueled water heater that offers a portable hot water shower solution. Intended primarily for camping uses, I found it a very convenient asset for my Off the Grid Living. I have used this product extensively since I first purchased it and reviewed it on this channel 2 years ago. I am here to tell you what has held up and what hasn't, as well as my likes and dislikes for this product.
    Join my dog and I at our wilderness homestead in the Canadian North. This channel features videos on off-the-grid lifestyle and building, trapline adventures, hunting, fishing, trucks and much more!
    I live off the land in a self reliant and self sufficient lifestyle. The land provides me with everything I need. My offgrid cabin is solar powered, heated by a wood stove and most everything I eat comes from the land; fish, eggs from my chickens, and many different wild game species. The lifestyle I live is essentially expense free and blesses me with the opportunity to do whatever I please.
    In the winter months we head out on the trapline and ethically harvest fur bearing animals. Through moderate and sustainable methods I snare and trap these animals and work on, and sell the pelts at auction which provides a decent income for me to invest in my off the grid homestead and lifestyle.

    Ever since we built our cabin we have purchased so many ( devices ) such as your shower set up that you don't need all the modern things like most homes have....
    There is a device for everything that does not require so much power if any at all.....
    The only thing we spent a lot of money on is our solar , propane tank that allows us to refill our smaller tanks and our water tanks complete with a filtration system ....
    All the other devices they have now has completed our cabin.....
    It feels so good to be free of the corporations that rob people every day.....
    God bless and love your videos

The world is waiting anxiously for the shower video, the bears are too. I see now why you catch the rain water. That water warmed up pretty quick. The hair cut looks like a new man. Good video.

    Good idea to get an adapter (amazon or elsewhere) so you can charge those expensive 1# bottles from a 25# one. Five bucks for a bottle here in the states as compared to ten or twelve for 25# bottle fill. Depending on where you are.

    I installed mine permanent in my trailer and i like it but The only downside is a little bit of propane smell and sometimes very seldom the igniter won’t light up right away like when new but I shut it down and restart it and it works. I think that it may be the battery but everything is great besides that.

    Its too bad Coleman changed the design. I have the original HWOD, had it for probably more than 10 years and still works amazing. The original started both the pump and the propane at the same time whe you turned the dial. Easy on, easy off. Only thing I've had to change has been the battery, but have probably used it for 100 showers and plenty of dishes etc. Maybe Coleman will improve it again, 1st gen rocked and I still use it steady at my camp.
    Still enjoying the progress and thanks for the effort in making all the videos!

    How about modifying the water line with a diversion valve and a return line? I'm looking at this for my truck (semi) and I kind of need to preserve my water supply. I'm thinking it runs back into my water tank when I soap up or waiting for it to heat. Then use what I need. Seems like a simple modufication and the unit would have constant water flowing over the heating unit.

    @mannihh5274 2 года назад

    Thanks for showing - I agree, Coleman is not top of the line, but having the water flow before you can start the burner is a no-go for me. May be it's to protect the heater, ensuring it's completely filled with water - have you tried to reduce the flow to a minimum while the burner is firing up?
    Right now from your review it looks more like a piece of sh.. to me. There are so much similar systems out there (HotTap, Mr.Heater etc.), I don't need issues like this.

      I've heard of people running a return line back to your water tank. Just a 3 way valve so it either recycles water or comes out hot. If water flow stops the unit will turn off (protection from overheat).
