If you manage to get on a pitch they usually call a 'serviced' or 'super' pitch, wou can connect direct to the water supply or via an arrangement fitted to the aquaroll plus grey water drainage. Then you need the capacity to heat the water at the rate and for how long you want your shower to last, I'd imagine a new van's water heating system would cope with that.

Its my job to ensure that in the morning before ablutions both 40ltr water containers are filled up, that should be enough for 2 people to shower. I tend to use the practice of soak myself - switch off - Lather - switch on and rinse. I tend to go on small sites without super pitches and this works for me.

if your car could travel at the speed of light and you turned on your lights what would happen?
