Why We Like The Joolca HOTTAP Outing Kit
The Joolca HOTTAP Outing Kit lets us enjoy real hot showers on the go, thanks to the smallest water heater in its class. Made for overlanders, van lifers, and campers who like a few creature comforts, this kit taps into any water source and connects to a propane bottle to deliver instant hot water with the flip of a switch. The Outing Kit includes a HOTTAP unit, ensuite plumbing, river pump kit, gas hose, and lightweight feet. We love that the HOTTAP system delivers quality hot showers that normally are hard to come by in campgrounds, cabins, and our off-the-grid escapes.

So Far so Good. Have not had it out in the wild yet, but everything was easy to assemble and worked great with the home test.
I have been a traveling sales rep in the outdoor industry for the past 20 years and have always lived out my vehicles and camper along the way. Having an instant Hot shower to wash off the grime after a bike ride or warm up after a whitewater mission is a game changer! Thanks Joolca!

We love it. Just wish it came with some sort of water purification for rivers and lakes etc. Not so much to drink but to avoid showering in bacteria etc.
Hot water anywhere. Easy to set up and easy to use. Very portable.

Definitely a game changer having hot water so easily accessible.
Was easy to assemble. Easy to use. The legs for the unit are unfortunately flimsy and bend too easily. Other than that, it’s a great unit and really made showering easy at the campsite.

Great addition to off grid camping
Gets much hotter than expected and has good pressure. Have not tried it with river water yet but will enjoy our family of six being able to shower when we camp off grid!

Very well made
Very easy to set up. I have only used it twice so far. It works exactly as advertised. Time will tell about the longterm viability, but I have every reason to think it will provide good service for a very long time.

Joolca review
Love it, love it, love it. Lol, out here in the woods with the chilly nights I love my joolca hot tap. Sometimes I just let the hot water run down my body cause it feels soooooo good. Thank you 1000x’s over for designing this product. Easy to pack up and easy to set up I love it. Thank you joolca. ❤️

Poor instructions
The assembly instructions are poor. No explanation of how to put the 2 D size batteries.in the heater.. Removed the 4 screws of the holder and then figured out that was not needed. It’s an expensive piece of equipment, the instructions should be better .
