12 Volt Shower System - Which One

Only ever used the glind shower. Was a welcome treat after days roughing it. Worked brilliantly. Water got real hot.

I have a 12 Volt shower that you fill a tub with hot water and submerge the pump in the water. The flow rate is very average but it is better then nothing.

I am trying to locate a higher volume / pressure 12 Volt pump I have located a secondhand garden spray pump and will give that a try. It is about 10 times larger then the submersible pump.

Hi A Team,

We have a Twine unit and it is fantastic. I chose it as it was all copper and silver soldered but be warned they all can scald if the person is not carefull. Mine came with warning stickers but I made a change to the plumbing lines to eliminate the scalding problem, not just reduce it. I will try to find the post I entered a while ago and advise the number.

Glind shower system for us. Worked every day for 12 months over 13 years ago and never had a problem since even when the unit sat under the bonnet waiting for the next trip away.

I did a lot of research into this and decided on a Helton.

In my opinion, and from the research I did, the three you mention and Glind all appear to work ok but are primarily built to a price in comparison to the Helton.

Helton has different models and make units with a larger thermal transfer area which I wanted. The prices are comparable , even cheaper and the construction is much more robust. In addition they will custom make them to your requirements.

They make a shower unit which is like the others mentioned, and a hot water unit which is much hotter and a bit bigger.

Take a look at them too. It looks like they put more money into the product than in the advertising.

Usual discalaimer. No interest, just chose them after a lot of research and a specific need to have all inlets and outlets at one end and hotter than normal for my 200 ( which has a low coolant temp).

If you don't have specific needs and the coolant is hot then they will all probably do the job though.

Hi, I manufacture the 12 v shower in the classifieds, just add hot water. Money back guarantee. Michael
