GENERAL PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The
Fleet Shower Room
provides a private, personal hygienic bathing
facility for a variety of rental applications. These include:
RECREATION: campgrounds, parks, residential & municipal
swimming pools, marinas, sporting events and ocean or
lake front hotels
CONSTRUCTION: work crew clean up from dusty environments such
as building demolition, ground grading and land
preparation, sanitary landfills, roofing and flushing of
hazardous materials
AGRICULTURE: removal of crop duster chemicals and provides
personal hygiene at migrant farm worker camps
MUNICIPAL: fire departments to remove carbon dust and cool down
of fire fighting personnel
NATURAL DISASTERS: clean and cool-down of crews fighting
forest fires. Provides personal hygiene when permanent
facilities are destroyed due to disasters such as
earthquakes, tornadoes, typhoon's, hurricanes, fires and
flooding
Installation requires a pressurised, fresh water source and connection to a
sewage disposal system such as municipal wastewater, septic and holding
tanks.
The fresh water system uses a standard garden hose type connection. The
showerhead dispenses 2 ½ gallons (9.5 litres) of water per minute. The shower
is activated by a ball valve. There is a combination faucet and hose bib that can
be used for cleaning the shower room and as a source of water for other
purposes.
The grey wastewater plumbing components are 2" schedule 40 PVC fittings
including a trap to prevent odours from seeping into the shower room from the
sewage connection, which is at the rear of the shower room. The 2" PVC
fittings are connected with 2" Fernco® flexible rubber couplings and clamps
which allow for easy maintenance should the plumbing system become
clogged or require repair.
