Title: Where can I buy a new wet bath?
Post by: Oregonconversion on March 31, 2009, 12:00:19 AM
I am looking for an all in one shower/toilet/sink that is preferably fiberglass or plastic. Anyone know where I can get one? It will save me the hassle of building one myself.

AFAIK, all wet baths are custom-molded for the application.  While there may be only a handful of companies molding them, each RV manufacturer is supplying either dimensions, templates, or molds.

To buy one ready-made, you'd have to settle for one of the designs already in the market, and persuade either the RV maker or the fabricator to sell it to you, or find one at a surplus dealer.

On this last possibility, I would check with the surplus outfits in Eugene, OR and Elkhart, IN (several listed in the archives here, or a Google search will turn them up).  With several manufacturers going belly-up over the last year, you might just get lucky.

Remember, stock wet baths are tiny.  Typical applications are truck campers, class-B's, and small light-weight travel trailers.

Good luck with your quest.

John, I gave 500 for mine with the top molded into it to match the roof line.I didn't want the ceiling materail exposed to the humidity from the shower.    good luck

Did that include a sink and a mount for the toilet, which is what the OP is looking for?  Or was that just a shower?  I suspect the former, which is a much more complex mold, is a bit pricier unless it is surplus.
