Why We Like The Joolca HOTTAP Nomad Kit
Whether we're posting up at a campsite for an extended stay or undertaking a long overlanding trip through the desert, nothing hits quite like a hot shower. The Joolca HOTTAP Nomad Kit gives us everything we need to wash off dirt, dust, and grime to feel fresh and clean no matter how far we wander. The HOTTAP unit quickly heats up water, and the included tub and faucet allow us to take care of our dishes. The long-distance pump can push water 100 feet up an incline, so as long as we're camped near water, we can enjoy warm washes in the wild.

Extend my camping trip
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Had a one-week camping trip with this gig and overall I think it worth 4 stars. Quick hot water, container big enough for a 10 mins shower. I did not use it for dish wash but shouldn’t be a problem. That one star comes from the set up and packing taking about 10 mins but that’s probably because I like to keep everything tidy. Also water is leaking out sometimes and I have to tighten the adapters here and there

It’s an amazing product!
Everything about it! It heats up fast! Great water pressure! Almost feels like a dream! We were able to take 103 degree showers with an outside temp of 15 degrees and pumping water out of a river that was frozen over on the top! The shower and sink worked flawlessly!

Awesome, I do wish there was a nicer sink option (upgrade) being that we are not using it for camping but for events for our barbershop. Also I wish it would have included a hose to lead the grey water away from sink
We really enjoyed the simplicity of getting everything to work together.

I like it. It’s a great tool to solve lots of problems.
The water heater in my 5th wheel RV died. Hottap is supplying hot water for showers and dishwashing for a lot less $ than replacing the water heater.

Love it so far!
I like the most about it is what makes it the Nomad Kit. The sink!

Only thing I feel can be tweaked is the high temp cutoff its a bit touchy also the distance to a water supply must be fairly ahort if you are sourcing water from a lake or stream,other than that we love it!!!!
The the unit itself has been a welcome addition to my camp gear! I love ease if operation and its additions.
