Create Private Outdoor Shower for Visitors to Flat
Open, HighPublic

Description

Create a frame around the outdoor shower. It might be movable or not. It should probably be a lighter frame, so that air can get through, for the nice advantages of an outdoor shower. Curtains can be added in T70: Create privacy curtains for outdoor shower and T50: Install privacy door or curtains for outdoor shower.

@Timotheos This is one thing that I'm still not sure about. Definitely more for just doing a permenent structure as that is actually easier. Only problem is where to put it now the tanks are down on the flat? The obvious place would be next to or near the tanks. But then if it's a permanent structure and I decide to shift, there will be a random shower structure on the flat which might be weird? I don't care about it being close to me and other's using it as that's convenient for me but might not be ideal for others?

The only other place I can think of would be against the hill at the back of the flat where someone started building that bamboo thing and run a pipe all the way to it. Which is fine, just means there will be a pipe running across the grass for 10-15m.

I'm all for going immediately for something permenent rather than spending more time and money to stepping stone through a temporary solution.

Another solution might be to just put one of those ICBs back up where it was and make a permanent structure where the solar shower currently is and gravity fill that tank from your tank up at the house. Then I can get by on one down the bottom. The other thing worth mentioning though is that will be directly visible to your neighbours house when they move in - so all they'll be able to see is people going in and out of the shower... may not be ideal.

My idea for a moveable 'pellet cube' type structure could be placed anywhere and 'pegged' to the ground. It would look like a permanent structure with a tin roof and shower curtain across the front. Clearly not a builder but I'm sure I/we can make something that doesn't look shit.

It looks like I'll be welding a frame for this in my next free time :)

Hey @Timotheos. Seeings I've had nothing but issues with my gas hot water system and outdoor shower - if we're still wanting to construct a private shower for visitors I think it will be best to do something separate. Mine works for my needs but is extremely difficult and complicated to use. I constantly have to repair it and it's just not suitable for common use.

A good place for a private shower might be in the space behind the Pineapple shed once the old tank is removed. Still happy to work on it with you.
