One of the greatest luxuries of camping is having exactly what you need, where you need it. At PinDrop Travel Trailers, every feature is designed with that philosophy in mind including our proprietary PinDrop® Solar Shower System.
Engineered and manufactured in-house by the PinDrop® team, this exclusive system combines convenience and versatility while also increasing fresh water capacity for extended adventures on the road.
Whether you're camping deep in the backcountry or spending a weekend at an established campground, the PinDrop® Solar Shower provides valuable conveniences not the least of which is a reset mid trip.
Designed and Built by PinDrop
The PinDrop® solar shower isn't an aftermarket accessory, it was designed specifically for the PinDrop® Travel Trailer and has been product tested by customers near and far.
The heart of the system is a custom-built 10-gallon water tank that mounts securely to the trestle-span roof rack. By utilizing space above the trailer, the system adds valuable water storage without taking away interior storage or living space.
Each tank is fabricated in-house and finished with a durable black powder coat. The black finish isn't just for appearance as it serves an important purpose by absorbing the sun's energy to naturally warm the water throughout the day. On sunny afternoons, campers can enjoy a comfortably warm rinse without relying on electricity or propane.
It's a simple, sustainable solution that fits perfectly with the fully solar-powered philosophy behind every PinDrop® Travel Trailer.
Thoughtfully Engineered for Flexibility
Camping isn't one-size-fits-all, and neither is our shower system.
Each PinDrop® Solar Shower includes two water outlets, one on each end of the tank. This gives owners the flexibility to choose which side of the trailer works best for their campsite setup. Whether you're parked next to another camper, tucked into a forest campsite, or setting up beside your favorite overlook, you can position your shower exactly where it's most convenient, most private, or even with the best view.
The system also includes an integrated pressure gauge so you can easily monitor tank pressure while you're on your adventure.
For campers venturing farther off the beaten path, PinDrop also offers an optional onboard (multi use) air compressor. This convenient upgrade makes it easy to keep the shower tank properly pressurized during longer trips, ensuring reliable water flow wherever your travels take you.
(The onboard air compressor can also be used for airing bike tires, and refilling vehicle tires, or fixing a flat.)
PinDrops Are Customizable and So Is Your Shower Experience
Every PinDrop® is built around the idea that no two adventures are exactly alike. Owners can customize their shower system with several available upgrades to match the way they travel.
For those who want hot water on demand regardless of weather conditions, an optional water heater can be neatly mounted inside the PinDrop® tongue box. The protected location keeps the heater easily accessible while maintaining the trailer's clean exterior appearance.
The tongue box also provides convenient storage for the shower hose and shower wand, keeping everything organized and ready to use. When it's time for a shower, simply connect the hose to either spigot and you're ready to go.
Many owners also choose to add an aftermarket shower privacy tent. These lightweight tents store compactly in zippered travel bags when not in use.
With an open top, the wand and hose easily slide down through the top of the tent. With countless styles available, it's easy to create a comfortable outdoor shower setup that fits your camping style while maintaining privacy at camp.
More Than Just a Camp Shower
While the ability to enjoy a warm outdoor shower after a long hike is certainly a welcome luxury, the PinDrop Solar Shower quickly becomes one of the most useful tools at camp.
Because it stores fresh water under pressure, owners find themselves using it throughout the day for countless tasks:
It's perfect for rinsing off dusty hiking boots, muddy mountain bikes, kayaks, paddleboards, or fishing gear before loading everything back onto the trailer.
Pet owners appreciate having an easy way to rinse muddy paws or give their four-legged adventure companions a quick bath before heading inside for the evening.
Camp chefs often use the shower to rinse soapy dishes, wash cooking equipment, or clean up after preparing meals outdoors.
After a day exploring dusty roads, many owners use the shower to spray accumulated dust from their solar panels, helping maximize charging efficiency and keeping their off-grid electrical system performing at its best.
The extra water also comes in handy for rinsing dirty clothing, cleaning campsite equipment, washing hands, or simply cooling off during hot summer afternoons.
And before packing up camp, the shower provides an excellent source of water to safely extinguish your campfire, helping protect the beautiful places we all enjoy exploring.
Once you begin traveling with the PinDrop® Solar Shower, you'll quickly discover new ways it makes every camping trip easier. This is one more innovation by PinDrop® that completely changes and enhances the camping experience.
Industry-Leading Water Capacity
Water is one of the most valuable resources when you're traveling off-grid.
That's why PinDrop® gives owners the ability to dramatically increase their onboard water capacity.
Every PinDrop Travel Trailer already includes a 12-gallon onboard fresh water tank that supplies the hand-pump kitchen sink. This is standard in every single PinDrop®. Additional fender-mounted storage carry extra 6-gallon water jugs when even more capacity is needed. For travelers planning extended adventures, the trailer can also accommodate two proprietary 10-gallon PinDrop Solar Shower tanks mounted on the roof rack.
Together, these systems provide an impressive 44 gallons of fresh water storage, a remarkable amount for a lightweight, fully self-contained travel trailer.
That added capacity means more days off-grid, fewer trips to refill water, and greater confidence when exploring remote destinations where services may be miles away.
Built for the Way You Adventure
Every feature on a PinDrop® Travel Trailer is designed with intention. The proprietary Solar Shower System isn't simply another accessory, it's an integrated solution that expands your trailer's capabilities while making life at camp more enjoyable.
From naturally heated water and flexible dual-spigot access to customizable upgrades and exceptional water storage, the PinDrop® Solar Shower reflects our commitment to building travel trailers that help people stay off-grid longer without sacrificing comfort.
At PinDrop®, we believe the best adventures begin when you're prepared to stay just a little longer. You don't need a plan... just a PinDrop.
