How do I make my RV shower feel less cramped?

Let’s be honest—RV showers aren’t exactly spacious, but there are ways to make them feel bigger. A curved shower rod or retractable door gives you more elbow room, and switching to a showerhead with a flexible hose helps you rinse off without feeling stuck in a tight space. Keeping toiletries in wall-mounted organizers instead of cluttering the floor makes a big difference too. A little organization goes a long way in a small shower.

How can I save water while showering in my RV?

If you’re hooked up to a water source, long showers aren’t a problem. But if you’re boondocking, every drop counts. The "navy shower" method—where you turn the water off while lathering up—helps stretch your supply. Installing a low-flow showerhead keeps water pressure up while using less water. If your RV has a shower shutoff valve, that’s a game changer—it lets you pause the water while keeping the temperature steady.

Why is my RV shower water pressure so weak?

Low water pressure can turn an already small shower into an even bigger hassle. If your shower feels weak, first check your water pump or campground water pressure—sometimes the issue isn’t in the shower itself. A water pressure regulator helps keep things steady if you’re hooked up to city water, and switching to a high-efficiency RV showerhead can help make the most of whatever pressure you’ve got.

What’s the difference between a wet bath and a dry bath in an RV?

A wet bath is when your toilet and shower share the same space—everything gets wet, but it’s a great way to save space in a small RV. A dry bath keeps the shower separate, so it feels more like a traditional bathroom and stays drier. Wet baths take some getting used to, but they’re common in camper vans and smaller rigs where every inch matters.

How do I keep my RV shower clean and mold-free?

Keeping your shower clean is all about stopping moisture from sticking around too long. After every shower, squeegee the walls or wipe them down with a towel to prevent water buildup. Running the bathroom fan or cracking a window helps vent humidity. A quick wipe-down with RV-safe cleaner once a week keeps mildew from creeping in. If you start seeing mold in the corners, a little vinegar and baking soda work wonders.
