Brantley Lake SP – Carlsbad, NM Shower Valve – Friday October 23, 2015

Today was laundry day.  It is always a challenge to find a laundromat.  The first one we found on Yelp we could not find in town.  I think it was where they are building a new Buffalo Wings restaurant.  The second one work out great.

Motorhome improvement:
Last year I added to ball valve to our shower.  It is not the most “high end” shower fixture however it sure works great.  It is a 1/4 turn on and off which makes controlling the water flow prefect.  The hot and cold water mix values on motor homes are not the best quality and it’s difficult to get the right temperature when trying to use the least amount of water.  Once I get the correct water temp I only have to use the ball valve to control the water flow.
This works great.
I also changed out the shower head last year.  This one mixes air with the water flow and spins the water to help create more water pressure.

This shower head is a lot heavier than the original head so I added these two strings to help support the shower head and allow for two different water flow angles.
