Outside shower
Bought a standard shower rv kit for outside shower but the nautilus has a coil "air hose" type connection.
I couldn't get the fittings to work.
Any advise on how to install real shower outside?

I had a similiar setup on a previous RV. I removed the coil hose, it came off a 1/2" pipe fitting so I was able to install a regular shower hose

On ours the quick connect fitting on the faucet unscrews and a standard fitting could be put in its place.

The Nautilus faucet has a propriety fitting for the hose connection. They sell a adapter that goes from their female to a standard garden hose fitting for about $6 (including shipment) at the website below;
http://www.dwincorp.com/products/71/...-Hose-Fitting-
It is a nice all brass piece. We use ours all the time, especially for the black tank flush. I made up a short hose (2') with one of the adapters that I leave hooked to the black tank flush port. Have another adapter on the end of a 25' hose we use for other things outside.
We have had outside showers on every unit we have owned (including one we had dealer added that was on the awning side of the trailer - don't ever do that) and we like the set up we have now better that any of them.
One little hint; you have to push in on the fitting / adapter to get the slip collar to release.Del & Vickie
