  • Fully self-contained (no grey-water on the ground).

  • Set up or packs away in just a few minutes

  • Weighs approx 8.6kg

​

Are you showering in your own dirty water ?

 

• Yes. EverShower gives you the option to keep using the same water for as long as you like. You can easily replace the water anytime, even mid-shower, to rinse, or not until the end of the next person’s shower, in remote desert situations, for example. A long, hot, guilt-free shower in the middle of the desert, staring up through the steam at the stars would have to be one of the most amazing experiences which most people would never get to enjoy.

 

• If you have plenty of fresh water available EverShower can be set to run on continuous fresh water just like any regular shower.

 

• When set-up to recitrculate, the EverShower is fully self-contained (no grey-water on the ground and no standing in the dirt).

​

• With this method it’s obviously not wasting water but it’s also not wasting the energy required to heat the water. Recycling heated water means much of the heat is retained.

​

How is the water heated?  Here are some options.

 

• Hot water can simply be added to the tub and then recycled or heat can be continuously added by pairing the EverShower with a water heater.

 

• Pour 10 litres of water into the tub in the morning, place it in the sun with its solar-absorbent cover and by the afternoon you already have 10 litres of hot water ready to use.

​​

• Heat water on the stove and pour it into the tub. If the shower feels too hot just let it cycle a few times until the temperature is nice then step inside.

​

• Pair the EverShower with a portable water heater. Instead of pumping the water from the tub to the handset and back again, pump the water via a gas water heater. With the roof attached the EverShower quickly feels like a little steam room.

​

• If you’re planning on going somewhere cold then an instant gas water heater is definitely the way to go. EverShower has been made compatible with most portable water heaters. Here’s a short video to show EverShower working wonderfully with a Smarttek Black portable gas water heater.

​

How much gas (propane) does it use to heating the water ?

​

• If you recycle heated water then you are retaining much of the heat within that water. Therefore, very little energy is required to maintain the temperature. Gas/propane/L.P.G consumption, when using the heater, is very negligible indeed.

 

What about in really cold conditions ?

 

• We’ve been using EverShower in the New Zealand snow and found it to be absolutely amazing. When using the gas water heater the shower tent becomes a little steam room in seconds. Fifteen minutes later you won’t want to get out. Better still, if you’re recycling the water, you don’t need to get out. Not only are you not wasting water but by recycling the water, it is also retaining much of the heat so it takes very little gas to keep up the temperature.

 

How Big is it? Is it really portable?

 

• EverShower’s unique patented design means plenty of room where you need it most – around arms and shoulders (due to the tapered shape) With around 2 metres of internal height (roof on) it still packs down to a small carry case 50.5 x 50.5 x 15.5cm and all just weighing 8.6kg.

 

• When set up, with the frame, it’s widest point is approx 175cm from the floor and measures about 98cm across. Please note, however, that the best way to use the EverShower indoors is often without the frame at all and instead by use of overhead points of attachment and the included adjustable straps.

​

• The total height of the frame from floor to apex is approx 220cm.

 

How is the water pumped?

 

• Water flow is powered by a very efficient 12 volt submersible electric pump. Simply plug into a motor vehicle’s 12 volt cigarette lighter socket, battery pack or converter. Alternatively, some water heaters have their own lithium-iron battery which can power the pump for about 80 minutes and can be recharged and used directly from 12v or 240v.

​

• When recirculating the water the pump is attached to a saddle inside the tub. It literally pumps the water from the tub up to the handset and back down. To run on continuous fresh water the pump can be detached from the saddle and submerged into your own fresh water bucket, for example, or jerrycan.

​​

• The high volume pump is has a very low power consumption of around 2-6 amps, depending on the model.

​

How do you pair EverShower and a heater?

 

• There are many portable water heaters on the market and the EverShower will function well with most of them.

​

• The basic principle is that, instead of pumping the water from the tub up to the handset and around again, it pumps via a water heater.

 

• Most portable water heaters will come with their own water pump. The EverShower pump is high capacity but low pressure so may not be compatible with some water heaters. When running the EverShower with a heater it’s usually better to use the pump supplied with the heater. We also recommend a 6 litre per minute capacity or greater. Some heaters include a 6L pump and some offer it as an option.

 

• To pair the EverShower and heater together, it’s not essential but can make it neater, to buy or make an intake adaptor hose like this. Watch

​

• Here’s a short video showing the paring of a Smarttek water heater with the EverShower. Watch

 

My pump has popped the top and bottom

 

• This is caused by a kinked hose from being packed away and not being straightened out before use  As it is a 30 lpm pump it has a strong flow and the water trying to force its way out. To prevent this from happening you can pop rivet with two rivets and it will resolve this issue.  You can Install a conduit splint over this section when using to prevent the kink from reducing or prevent the water from exiting.
