Oxygenics shower head

Just saw this in a e-mail from CW. Pretty good price if you are thinking about one.

We have one, it uses very little water, but I find its noisy and splashes over the shower doors cause of the pressure is much greater than the original one.

I did turn the pressure down and it stopped splashing over the doors.

Anyhow, good price for it.

I got one of those and had the same splash problem you did. My DW disliked it so much I had to change it back.

AVid,

I understand, I changed ours back to the original one too. But then decided to give it one more chance. If you turn the pressure down, way down, it works fine. I was always use to using full pressure on the old one, so I naturally turned the water on full force with the new head, splashing everywhere.

Try it again, but cut back on the pressure and you should be OK.

Oldelmer,

Do you mean just urn on less pressure at the shower knobs?

Exactly, less pressure is what will stop the splashing and it doesn't effect the spraying of the water for rinsing your body off.

Plus your hot water will last longer.

Tom, you are presenting a good argument for trying one of these shower heads!

Mark,
Well, we use to run out of hot water before when the DW would shower and then I would shower right behind her. But now, I don't get the cold shower as before.

Hmm, it was always me taking my shower second, and getting the cold water, whats up with that!!!!!!!

But anyhow, no cold water now, so it does save on hot water too.

That could have something to do with it! I always wait until the HW heater cycles then I go take my shower...time permitting.

I had the oddest thing happen on the last 2 trips. I turn the water off at the shower head, when opening the shower head again to rinse, the water was hot, not cold like it had been in the past. And when I say hot...I mean HOT!!! I don't know what changed, but something did...

Yeah, mine was always cold too.

With the Oxygenics shower head, you can turn the valve and have the water dribble out, instead of completely shut off. I think this helps some with that blast of cold water. ITs still cool, but not COLD!!!!.

Does this Oxygenics head still mount in the factory holder like the factory one?

Cummins2500hd,

you can use the same hose, so the end will fit into the existing holder. Although it is pretty top heavy, I would not trust it to stay in the holder while on the road. I took it out of the holder, and slipped the hose down and let it rest into the round ring.

I did buy the correct holder for it from Camping World, it holds it much better. But I just out this on 2 days ago, so we haven't been on the road with it there yet.

I am very jealous of you Americans and your Camping World stores. Sounds like a store I would like to browse through. I haven't seen anything that stocks as many items as people mention CW stocks. Lucky You!

Check out their website Camping World If you can't go there, you can at least browse their selection from the comfort of your PC and maybe see if there's a store close to you on your next visit if you're close to the U.S. Border.

Surely you can ship it can't you ?

Thanks, good to know. And yes, I am about 2 hours to the US border in either direction. Live just east of Toronto if that means anything to you.

Theres a Camping world just around the corner from you in Hamburg , Ny and another in Churchville over by Rochester.

I looked at the " Hitch House RV dealer " web site there in Toronto. Their store looks to have just about anything that a Camping world would have. Heres the link.

The only draw back to Camping world is their over priced , and you have to " Pay" yearly dues to become a member of their store club to get the discount price. You can usually find the same Item at an RV dealer next door for cheaper or the same price as their discount price. Their nitch sometimes is just being convenient and open late on Saturday and Sunday.

I just put on in and what a great feature to have in the Shower. It has great pressure and less water. I got mine at camping world for about $35

Stopped at Camping World as i was getting ready to check out, i saw a sales paper with the Oxygenics shower head. I picked one up and got a free shower curtain, (not that we can use it) they say worth 19.99. Cant wait to hook this baby up and try it out......

Just remember, you don't need to turn the pressure on as hard as the original shower head, cause if you do, you'll splash over the shower doors.

Also, its pretty loud.

Put the new shower head on, DW takes her shower says she liked the presure. I hop in and discover were out of propane.... Didnt enjoy it as much as DW. I attempted to have her turn the electric switch on but my directions just werent getting either of us anywhere.
Tomorrow is another day.....lol...

Bags,

BUMMER!!!!!!

Where you camping at?

We are down in Tuckerton NJ at Atlantic City North Campground. Are you out this weekend?

Welll...the DW disliked the Oxygenics one so much she bought a new one. Won't get a chance to use it for two weeks yet, stay tuned I'll let you know how it works out. >Link to shower head<

Bags,

No, we are heading to Gettysburg later in the week, then up to Mexico, PA. Going to drive over to Hershey 1 day for the RV show, then I think we are going to head for 1000 islands in up state NY.

AVid, I understand, I'm still on the fence with ours. But I will give it a few more tries before I make a permanent decision.

We installed an Oxygenics also. Really liked the shower head. We have no trouble with over spray. The shower head points almost straight down. I tried mounting it were the old shower was. Forget it. Has to have wood behind it. So I moved it now I got two problems. I have to fill three holes somehow. Does anybody have any ideas how to do that? Also the holder for the shower head turned the shower wall brown behind it. So now I have a brown spot on the shower wall and three holes. Tried cleaning with solvent lightly but it is still there. Anybody got any ideas on how to clean the stain off?
