To solve this problem we have here the three modular components: Bomba, a safe, portable electric water heater that heats 5 gallons of water to 110 degrees F in 15 minutes Corazon, a simple to use foot pump that pressurizes the warm water; and Gota, a multi-purpose faucet head.
The whole system is capable of easily providing a good shower for 2 adults or 3 children.
