Helton Hot Water Shower Kit

Scott, I definitely wouldn't mount it in the bullbar, as they are not waterproof. You may have to make an additional bracket, you will have a lot of captive nuts on panels under the bonnet. I have had a twine mounted in the 80 series for 16 years, my bracket holds both the pump and heat exchanger and has large rubber washers between the bracket and the inner gaurd. I made a plate that bolts on behind the bull bar wing, which has the inlet and outlet on it. The pump switch is on the dash, I didn't feel it necessary to open the bonnet every time we wanted to use the shower, as you use the interior heater control to regulate the water temp. Always use a filter on the intake hose as it doesn't take much to stop your pump, I have drawn approximately 15+ m horizontally and 2m vertically using a simple one way valve in front of the filter.
Imho you have made a good decision buying a under bonnet shower than those cubes on the market.
I use to run tags and would pull up beside a creek, pop up the shower tent and the punters could all have a lovely hot shower with very little effort.
Cheers.

I had a helton once I put two barbed conectors on the bullbar so when ever I needed hot water i just connected pump and water source and bingo hot water. once I bought a caravan with hot water it became redundant.

Hi

The Helton kit is now installed.
I installed brass quick fit air line sockets instead of the barbs.
Works well.
Thanks guys for the info & a big thanks to Helton.
