Rinsing out the wet bay, also washing hands after handling sewer equipment.

We have used it to clean shoes, flip-flops etc... at the beach.

I think the only time I use mine is to winterize it in the fall. Some people use it just to rinse of the kids and dogs when at the beach. since I have neither, I just don't have a reason to use it. I just remembered, it is good for resale value too.

My "shower" came with a garden sprayer on it. Great for cleaning off feet after the beach, shoes, and mud on bikes.

Water fights?

We've actually used ours for quick showers.

It did come in really handy after the dog rolled around in bear dung!

I use it when I need a pail of water to wash the truck or trailer.

Mine is very near the black and grey water dump lines. Before I touch anything relating to dumping, I open the shower door and mount the head.

Even though I wear rubber gloves for emptying the sewage tanks, I always wash my hands afterwards using the outside shower and a little soap I keep conveniently in the storage compartment.

In most weather conditions, we much prefer to shower outside than to use the tiny little, no headroom shower in our TT. We have an outside shower at home, and it gets more use than the inside shower from Memorial Day well into the fall. There is just something really nice about feeling the fresh air while you are showering .....
As noted above, it is also very handy for the dogs, sandy feet, and washing large items, and doesn't fill up the gray water tank ......

I actually cut the hose of outdoor shower at around 6 inches and installed a plastic Y connector. To one end I reattached the hand held shower and to the other end I connected a hose to my homemade outdoor shower including shower deck. Nothing like having a hot shower outside after a long day at the beach!
