File this one directly in the “why didn’t I think of that?” folder. As the bathroom gets more and more eco-friendly, the EcoDrain is stepping in to take advantage of all the hot water that goes to waste each time you shower. Put simply, this user-installed heat exchanger transfers heat from hot shower waste water to cold incoming water, essentially cutting water heater usage by as much as 40 percent. Of course, we’ve never seen a plumbing job that was anything close to simple, but for savings like this, it may just be worth the trouble.

When I go camping, I like to stick to a tent and a sleeping bag, rather than taking a big RV like some people tend to do. I like not being troubled by all of the extras and just enjoying nature. Unfortunately after a few days of enjoying nature, one can get a very unnatural smell. A lot of campgrounds have showering facilities, but if you’re out in the wild, you won’t be as fortunate. If you are still wanting to take a nice hot shower now and then, I suggest investing in one of these Zodi Camp Showers.

The shower holds enough hot water for you to get a good 10-minute shower, which should improve your smell considerably. The water can be adjusted up to 100 degrees and is heated with small propane tanks while the pump is powered by 4 D batteries. That hot shower comes at a hefty price, $90 to be exact.
