What is an outdoor shower and how does it work?

An outdoor shower is a standalone shower unit that is weatherproof and can be used outside. There are a few different types of outdoor showers:

A solar shower contains water in a holding tank or reservoir, which is heated by the sun’s energy. Most solar showers don’t require plumbing into mains plumbing, they simply connect to a standard garden hose for their water source.

Many solar showers contain a mixer so you can blend cold water from the garden hose with warm water in the shower body, to get the temperature just right.

'Plumbed-in' outdoor showers are connected to the mains water supply for cold and hot water, and require installation by a registered plumber.
