Outdoor shower water shutoff valve

Anyone know if there is an inline water shutoff valve for the outdoor shower on a 2015 Sunseeker 2800 QS? It looks like I might have a water leak in the wall beneath the shower.

I do not know, however I suspect it is very doubtful there are shut off valves for the outdoor shower. Shut off/Stop valves are usually only installed for draining the fresh water tank, bypassing the water heater, and winterizing an RV. Shut off valves could be installed on the outdoor shower, however very doubtful in my opinion in case an owner of your RV does not reply.

no but...

I have yet to see a SS come with an outdoor shower cut off. But if you have access to the feed lines for hot and cold (mine were under the bathroom sink) you can install or have installed. Here is a pick of mine after replacing a cracked outdoor shower facuet. More pics (3 -5 for this project) in my album "water works" .

There's always something to fix....

I doubt it...

As soon as I figure out where the water lines start to my outside shower I'm going to either put shutoff valves on them...

Or plug them off.

The only use I have for the outside shower is as another low point drain.

Already had to replace it once due to a freeze up last winter...what a PITA that was!

Here is the split in my outside shower faucet:

Non on our 2013 2500TS,,,
We had to remove the shower box when our unit was new,,, could not get any Hot water,,, we found that the non flexible supply line to the hot water was pinched off,,, after removing the line I heated it up with Hot water,,, then set it with Cold water,,, to remove the knick !!!
It was a little tricky getting it back in without pinching it again,,,
it could not be jammed back in like FR had done !!!

Our first FR TT we had a water leak inside where the fresh water fill was,,,
Hose clamp was loose !!!

I suggest everyone check the intake line hose clamp. In the pic below the water tank fill line clamp as sent from factory, not engaged, not even finger squeezed tight. Over flow leak did occured when tank was filled once above line level. Saving grace it occured in the summer at home so fix was quickly addressed.

Quality in workmanship?
