outside shower
Thought I would forward details of my newly installed project:
an "Outdoor Shower" I'm very pleased with it. It took me a week of going back & forth to Lowes & wal-mart cuz i didn't quite know what i was doing. Parts: One: 6ft metal fence " T" stake galvanized 1/2"end cap / 4ft galvanized 1/2"water pipe two handled brass mixing valve (from a shower kit ~ 40$--60$) 2ft galvanized 1/2"water pipe / 90deg galvanized 1/2" elbow a 4or 5 unit muti-cutoffvalve to hook your house waterhose spigot to. black waterhose for hot side & any other garden hose for cold side bungee cord to hold the plumbing pipe onto the fence stake a $30 outdoor eating tent/canopy @ wal-mart $3 metal shower soap/ razor /washcloth organizer that hooks over the shower head. 5 shower curtains & rings Throw everything up ( & attach the shower head & handles to the plumbing) and you have a really nice outdoor shower if you want to use after working in the mud, or maybe to cool off if sun gets too hot. If you use it as a seasonal shower in the summer, you can save money on hot water cuz the sun is cooking that black water hose. I did see a prettier design in a magazine, but it didn't have as much elbow room. instead of the awning, they bought a black metal garden arch; they are for sale here at lowes for $160. It was very decorative!! I was also thinking that i should now plant mint there, so when you walk on it, you smell that really fragrant smell ! jfrost |
