fantastic product
The fittings do come wrapped in plumbers tape. I found that I needed to re-wrap them to ensure a watertight seal. Otherwise this is a fantastic product. I purchased two of different capacities. Both work great.

Glad it worked well.
When you find a great product that also has great customer support, like Roadshower, don't hesitate to invest in it.

I am a profession engineer, so I admit I am critical. But this is a very expensive device, especially when you consider it is basically an aluminum tube with a faucet on the end. I also wonder if Road shower’s engineers (yes, I am making a presumption) considered that the heat gathered by the black paint will reradiate into the ambient. The sun is absorbed by the black coating (paint) and the water heats. But the water also keeps the aluminum at a stable temperature and the aluminum radiates that heat back into the air. The end result is that the water will not be any warmer than the air surrounding the tank. My thermodynamics is not nearly as good as it used to be, so maybe I’m missing something, but I’m pretty sure Newton’s law of cooling is still valid. The water from the tank even after sitting all day in the sun on a 90-degree day was about 90 degrees, not close to the 100+ that is claimed. To get a true warm shower, I finally started adding water I had boiled on the stove. I purchased the shower head accessory. It works, but the base allows it to swivel. It is loosely attached so it swivels to the low spot all by itself. I finally strapped it to the locking tab to keep it from moving around while I was taking my shower. The spray nozzle popped off the hose on the first use. It is fastened with a single squeeze clamp that was not correctly installed. The Velcro loops that are used to hold the hose in place fell off the first day. There are no load spreading washers under the screws that hold the loop to the tank, so the Velcro pulled over the screw heads. And does it need 3” of threads to keep the cap on? It takes quite a while to unscrew and this thing. Every pressurized car radiator in the world does just fine with a twist on pressure release cap. Surely one can be designed for a 65psi system.Heavy and overbuilt just for heaviness sake is not the same as quality. The black paint chips and flakes off easily, so take care when mounting and attaching accessories. The shower is good idea, sort of a how do I make that little black plastic solar shower better kind of idea, but it is not well implemented. After using it on a few week long excursions, I wish I had made my own. I’d have saved a lot of money.

We still stand by that the unit will heat 20-30 above ambient temperature if in the sun. If not in the sun, it will eventually cool off to ambient temperature. There is no radiator cap that can take 65 PSI...we know, our Road Shower 2 used one and only went to 28 PSI. Here is how to make one and why you might choose not to: https://roadshower.com/diyinfo.html.
Awesome built product. Great customer service. Haven’t got a chance to use it yet, but it mounts nicely on my off road trailer. Can’t wait to give it a try.

Our Roadshower has been a saving grace over the past 3 months. We are constantly using it to wash our hands, dishes and take showers on the road. It’s easy to use, re-fill and looks great on top of our truck!
