So, I have a 21' TT. I'd like to add an outdoor shower, readily available from Amazon. I have perfect spot outside, and works perfect under kitchen sink cabinets etc.
Here is my question. I know that I can splice into the 1/2" pex H & C , and put shark bite fittings with a 'T' and plumb to the outdoor shower. Limited space under there for a big guy and tools.
However, I also see that I might be able to get away with putting a 'T' at the inlet and outlet of the water heater; standard Atwood 1/2" connections.
Does anyone see a problem in putting a 'T' on the H & C of the water heater, then regular plumbing sink lines to the outdoor shower? as long as my 'T' is under 3", I can still use the dummy panel to hide.
Next question, are these 1/2" fittings 1/2" NPT, or some other type thread typically? I unscrewed the pex to female fitting the attaches to the water heater, it had a small rubber like gasket inside. Also, what is the typical thread of the connection to a plumbing facet, 1/2" npt ?
Many thanks for input, I'm hoping I can find necessary materials on Amazon. I'd like to conquer this project before I de-winterize for the camping season.
