Systems Explained
Unlimited hot showers in a van — without unlimited water. A real shower like you have at home, in a vehicle.
The 30-Second Answer
The Infinity Shower is a recirculating shower system: water leaves the shower head, goes through a UV sterilizer and micron filter, gets cleaned, heats back up, and returns to the shower head. Less than 1 gallon of water recirculates the entire time. You can take a 1-hour shower on a 20-gallon tank — completely uncompromised. When you’re done, the recirculated water drains to grey. +$8,500 over the Dedicated Interior Shower (which it requires).
How It Works
Instead of sending shower water down the drain, the system filters and reheats it — so the same gallon keeps going as long as you want to shower.

Why People Upgrade
The biggest win. Your shower duration is no longer capped by your fresh water tank size. Take a 5-minute shower or a 1-hour shower — it uses the same water either way.
The recirculated water is continuously cleaned during your shower. UV light kills bacteria; the micron filter catches everything else. The water that touches your skin is filtered cleaner than what came out of your tank.
Most van showers are quick-rinse compromises. The Infinity Shower is the same shower experience you have at home — full pressure, full temperature, full duration, no rationing. For full-timers and people who refuse to compromise on the daily ritual of showering.
The Question Everyone Asks
It’s the first reaction almost everyone has — and it comes from a misunderstanding of how you actually use it. You don’t step in filthy and start recirculating dirty water. You take a quick sud rinse first with the initial fresh water — washing off the bulk of the day’s dirt and sweat — then press the button to activate recirculation. So the water looping through the system isn’t your dirty first-rinse water; it’s already-rinsed-off water being continuously cleaned on every pass. Every loop runs through a drain filter for larger debris, a micron filter for fine particles, and a UV sterilizer that kills bacteria. The water touching your skin is actively filtered and sterilized the entire shower. When you’re done, none of it is stored — it drains completely to grey. Nothing sits, nothing stagnates. Arguably it’s cleaner than a quick rinse where you’re standing in whatever’s pooling at your feet.
Honest Tradeoffs
Decision Framework
Designing Around It
This unit works best in an enclosed shower, and the space has to be designed to house it. Our preferred approach is to build the Core into the shower wall — making the wall slightly deeper to create the space cleanly, without eating into living area or cabinet storage. The Core is compact (10″ × 13.5″ × 5.25″), with a separate UV sterilizer and micron filter assembly and a small in-shower control panel. It does take up room — but planned for at the design stage, it disappears into the build. That’s the advantage of speccing it into a build from the start versus retrofitting later.
What It Costs at Sequoia + Salt
The Infinity Shower adds $8,500 on top of the Dedicated Interior Shower (+$9,000) and the Hydronic Climate System (+$11,000). All three together are +$28,500 over Foundation. That includes the Infinity Shower Core unit, UV sterilizer, micron filter, electronic drain diverter, two-ring shower head, control panel, and integration with your hydronic hot water loop.
