Outside Shower - Quick Connect

Originally posted by OHIOJJ How would I do the quick connects at the low drain points?  That might work for me as I'll only be using the outside shower occasionally.  THX!

I'm going to say.. get a couple "T"s, put them inline at the low point drain, add quick connects to the new "T" side.

Personally, I think one or two times of having to go under there to "quick connect" and I would be more than ready for an "open box, pull out sprayer, wash dog" experience.

I thought I could do the connection and then run something to the side of the camper (still underneath) to make the quick connect easier.  To be honest, I don't get how connecting into the low-point drains would get me water.  I just thought it would be easier to figure out than cutting the pod and putting in an outside shower  :)

See.. I think cutting the pod, working standing up, and adding a complete piece that is self contained all at once is easiest.. lol

I don't know what model Pod you have... (you could put it in your signature.. hint hint)

But on a 177, there is the perfect place for it under the kitchen window, with an easy hookup to the sink plumbing.

Originally posted by furpod The low point drains are part of the main plumbing.. the "end of the line" so to speak. If you hooked up to them you would need a valve of some sort, but they have water/pressure in them whenever the rest of the plumbing does. Their actual purpose is for winterizing.

The type I'm thinking of wouldn't require a valve - like what is used for hydraulic and propane quick-disconnects.  They self-close when the line is removed.
