Hi all,
I am building a small camper and looking for different ideas on building the shower/toilet combo section. The space available is 2'x4' for the bathroom. I was thinking of purchasing a shower/toilet shower pan but I can't find any. Anyone know where I can pick one up or have any different ideas? I was also curious as to why are there step/seat shower pans? You actually sit to take a shower?
Thanks,
Renato
most of the combo units are all fiberglass like a shower stall,theres places on the net that have all kinds of rv stuff,some rv salvage yards,try a place like www.rvpartsoutlet.com/newstore/nojava/index.cmf see if they have anything you can use,

You could form it in sheetmetal or plywood then bedliner it. That is my plan. The seat in the one piece fiberglass factory showers is a fancy dancy way to deal with the side of the pickup bed. My ideal camper is on a flatbed and much rather have the floorspace than the seat. PortaPotties and cassette toilets rule. George

The seat is mostly due to the fact that there insn't enough room for a grown person to take a shower in the space provided. So they compromise by giving you a seat to keep you from falling down while doing the contortions necessary to get clean in that little area.

I would just install a shower and use a porta-potti. The last one I bought had no metal parts so if it gets wet in the shower it doesn't hurt anything. I still use it a couple of times a year when I go tent camping. A medium sized unit lasted my wife and I 3-4 days and can be dumped in any toilet or down a sewer drain. Very easy and clean and leaves more room for a larger grey water tank. My camper came with a conventional RV toilet but I'd much rather have either space for a porta-potti or a cassette toilet and a larger grey tank.
The reason for the step in the wet baths is that there is usually something (like the top of the black tank) underneath.
Happy Trails,
