How To Get More Water Pressure In Your RV Shower - Oxygenics Shower Install
Tricks, Ratschläge, Online, Reparieren, Landwirtschaft, Landwirtschaft Maschine
We replaced the plastic shower head and shower faucet in our RV with new brushed nickel fixtures from Oxygenics and Dura Faucet. The new shower head claims to use less water and produce more pressure so we put it to the test. Share this video http://youtu.be/644UcYIXetE Here is another great upgrade. Install a Fan-Tastic Vent http://youtu.be/slZHytYrub8 We had heard great things about the Oxygenics shower head from fellow Rvers and decided to give it a try. The new shower head uses patented technology to infuse oxygen into the water to increase spray velocity and produce a high flow shower even with low water pressure. We also found a matching shower faucet with a brushed nickel finish to complement the new shower head. It is made of lightweight plastic, but looks like finished metal. Both items featured in the video purchased on Amazon.

Even novice Do It Yourselfers can take on this project with great success. You'll love the result.

You probably should have tested the water before screwing the panel back on to make sure there was no leaks. Otherwise it could be leaking behind there and you won't know
-
I own a Jayco TT and wondered how you found the replacement faucet assembly for your rig. Did you go to through the RV manufacturer or another 3rd party manufacturer? I would like to replace the plastic faucets in our rig also.
-
doh...... Dang you Brian, I'd of rather seen Melissa try the shower head ;)
-
how did this increase the pressure? did you install a new pump at the same time?
-
Are the faucets universal in these campers? (size that is)...
-
Question: Taking a shower in the RV (I never have) does the on board hot water tank hold enough to have a decent hot shower ?
-
thanks for product info!
-
@1.25 you can see the shower head restriction.... Take the faucet off and drill that hole larger and water pressure to shower will be raised... Cost is FREE
-
Thank you Brian for your tips! I just upgraded my shower head by following your steps. I now need to watch the fan replacement :)
-
One of the best upgrades we've done. Glad you like it

By design and by RV plumbing standards, all shower heads that have an "on/off" button at the handle MUST allow a small amount of water leakage (dribble) when in the "off" position. You will also notice this on all outdoor shower heads. This design is to help prevent scalding accidents when the hot and cold water is not allowed to mix while the shower button is turned off.

NO! NO! NO! You fail plumbing school at 1:45
NEVER use ANY thread treatment on a compression fitting! The only purpose of the threads in a compression fitting is to provide mechanical force on the seal components. Teflon or any other thread sealers actually REDUCE the effectiveness of the seal and can cause problems.
Thread sealers are only used when the threads are truly providing the seal - hence "thread sealer". -
Nice review. I was hoping you'd also show the on off button in operation... I read a review that says it doesn't turn it all the way off - have you tried it?
Thanks. btw - the showerhead is still plastic, right? -
I did this upgrade and it is pretty awesome. But two things I would point out; 1) I also upgraded my city water hookup to a SurFlo with built in pressure regulator and I got rid of the blue (sometimes white) canister filter that almost everyone uses. 2) The hose that came with the Oxygenics shower broke at the coupling during our second trip with it. I bought a $10 all metal hose at Camping World and all is good now. RVs can handle up to 85psi water pressure. The gold regulator that most people use limits you to 40 psi. Between that and the canister filter that really limits flow, you're never gonna have a nice shower. Now we love it!

Before reinstalling that faucet panel I would check for leaks first.. Looks good, I love saving water
-
Thanks,
Love your videos, please quote prices any time can.
Again thank you for your help. -
great info thanks
-
Brian, it's always a quick shower when there's no hot water, huh? Thank you for the video!
-
The water saving did not look too convincing, I thought it was better than that, like 30 to 50 percent savings
-
Great vids as always.
