Joolca HOTTAP V2 Essentials Kit

Very disappointing product – We bought a brand new hottap shower from BURNSCO NZ. We also bought a brand new 12v battery as power supply and built a large well ventilated cubicle. The provided pump was connected to a large water tank built especially. The water heater does not have a fixation system to put it on a wall, so we hanged it. This shower would be great if you are… Read more

satisfied with a 30 second shower. After that it systematically turns off. We tried all the various settings (water and temperature) and it made NO difference. We also found no blockages in the water intake... we went online and tried all the troubleshooting solutions, it also made no difference.

Best off grid instant hot water – Excellent product and even better after sales support. We are off grid and building and Joolca is our daily shower. Had an issue with the pump which was replaced even though it was just out of warranty. Amazing to have 24/7 customer support.

Works great – Purchased from Road Tech Marine. Previously had a different brand that was a nightmare. Hottap V2 is very good and actually does what it claims and what you would expect. Very happy, thank you. Show details

Oh my god! I am so happy! – I bloody LOVE my Hot Tap! When I first tried it out, I turned it up to its hottest because I had read a review that said they don’t get very hot……what a load of rubbish! It was too hot! I had to turn it down so I didn’t cook myself. It is an awesome product. I could not be happier. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Show details ·  1

Let down twice on camp – Lots leeks with cheap connectors, 1st pump stopped and was great to be replaced but then 2nd one stopped also after little use and wouldn’t replace that, had to buy new however brought same pump elsewhere for 5th Joolca price. Main issue is the system is unreliable and when camping and it breaks down your out of running water for the rest of your camp

Senbloodysastional – Great product, well made, simple and easy to use, hot water wherever you want! Show details

Temp bathroom – The whole system works very well, with the hotwater being as close to instant as one could ask for, very happy with it, but be prepared to wait for it to turn up, nearly 2 months for us. Mine is hooked up to our mains pressure at home as a temp shower while our bathroom is being renovated. We set it up inside a 3m x3m gazebo, on concrete under a roofed area. Show details

A fart will blow it out – We bought this unit late last year with hopes of it being decent, premium price for a premium brand right? Wrong. We've had no end of trouble. The unit will light and at times stay on for up to a few minutes. Sometimes it only stays lit for 15-20 seconds. Definitely worse in any wind over 2km/h (which is really nothing). It's not hitting the temp… Read more

sensor threshold as usually it cuts out at 38-40c, but sometimes cooler than that.

We have tried; - Multiple gas bottles - Mains pressure water and two different 12v pumps - two joolca supplied gas regulators and hoses - one my own supplied regulator - multiple sets of batteries - foil tape around the sides - moving the flame sensor (per joolca instructions)

We sent the unit back a few months ago. They sent it back stating no fault found, although they admitted to testing it indoors. I reinstalled the unit and have all the same issues, with the addition of them having left the display screen unplugged.

Customer service just seems to go in circles.

I've considered building a case for it but it is neither convenient and due to space limitations potentially not doable. Irrespective I shouldn't have to do it, you can breathe on it and it will go out.

I'm sick of this and wish I'd never bought it or the mount for it.

Love this, makes life so much easier – We have a camper trailer and the Joolca Hottap has made our life a lot easier, it is so easy to use and is instant. We would recommend this product. Show details ·  1

Cannot be hardwired – Battery option only, not worth it unless you wanna buy continuously type c batteries Show details

NOT HAPPY JAN ! – I have to say after persevering with this system in my tiny home it is probably the worst and most unreliable piece of equipment i've ever had. I have had leaking tap switches which i have fixed, the water temperature is not hot enough unless the water flow is reduced to a trickle on the lowest setting and the ignition fails to fire up more often… Read more

than not. A new a pressure control valve was installed prior to use , renewed the batteries for ignition many times and have replaced full gas bottles. My enquiries and contacts with this company have also been very poor. I had great expectations of this system as it is part of my business but would not recommend this product to anyone.

Impressive – I am very happy with my Joocla for my ‘bush bathroom’!! Totally hassle free setup. Show details

AWFUL AND UNPREDICTABLE – We have been trying to use this Joolca for 12 months now, best i can get it is 20 degrees unless i turn the water right down to a dribble. I have tried to call Joolca IMPOSSIBLE they don't exist in Australia any more. I had to email them and got a response from someone in Malaysia who gave me a generic answer. The hot tap is nothing but a waste of money, My wife bought this for me for my birthday i am 100% disappointed. Show details

Should have bought one sooner – After using our joolca hot water unit for a week we realised we should have bought one of these years ago for the farm. Has made mixing calf milk so much easier. We also use it to wash the pony as well!

Great Hot Water System – The Joolca HOTTAP is straight forward and easy to use as well as being reliable. It is connected to a small cabin hot water system and produces a very nice consistent hot shower. Show details ·  1

extremely poor customer service – Worst attitude and customer service l have ever experienced, very slow delivery even after paying extra for express post (rip off) not point having a half decent product and the worst customer service makes that product crap. Show details

Problem after problem – Issues on all areas; regret my purchase Wont light even with full bottles - some days will but others won’t Wind blows it out has to be sheltered Too high temps Too low temps Bad support on offer only get responded to via text with more things to try & fix - never works Leaky shower head Valves fall out of sockets The List of complaints goes… Read more

on Brand new & they won’t return it but keep sending me parts that never fix it Never again will I purchase a joolca

After 300 uses - it works perfectly – Used the Joolca hottap & double tent for our primary shower during house renovation. QLD: 3 months for a family of 5, something over 300 uses. After 3 months of permanent use I just packed it all down, took 10mins Apart from a kettle this has been our primary hot water and cleaning for the whole family + dog. Across the period we used roughly 2x… Read more ·  1

8.5kg of gas, it runs pretty lean - kids were not messing around and like to hang out in there during winter weeks to get toasty. The heater did not miss a beat, always fired up - easy to set up and pack down. Nothing felt like it had really worn badly or degraded during the time it was set up. The tent got a hole in one corner - but has been through a bunch of storms - so all fair. Pretty much all good and everything worked as needed. My only mention of negative would be that the heating unit will blow out during use if not protected from wind - in winter this can lead to a lot of moaning form the wet kid mid shower, so wear ear plugs as you put up a bit of shielding and then just turn it back on as normal.

Joolca Hottap V2 Essentials Kit – The Joolca Hottap V2 Essentials Kit is an awesome unit. It supplies constant hot water for camping or off grid setups. I've found its better than a regular indoor shower lol. Show details

Perfect Reliable Camp Shower! – I absolutely love my Joolca Hottap. Its a well built quality product that works well. As the saying goes "You get what you pay for" I look forward to using it, when i hit the road!

"Love the Joolca hot water shower" – Love the hot water shower it is set up in my backyard in an outdoor shower I built and it is perfect plus I can take it camping. It’s well worth the $ Show details

Best money spent on anything camping – Wind does affect at times but besides that the unit copes well and water temp and demand is awesome. Got a full setup I have adapted into my camper and everything worked as it should..Very happy with all my joolca products.. Show details

Components not all there – Received the package on Friday 6/4 it was missing the lp quick connect and it still has not been resolved such a waste of $250 and I still can't use the product. Also their customer service stares it's 7 days a week not even close.  Show details

Not fit for purpose – This unit does not function as advertised. The spec states that it should achieve 30 degrees C rise from input when Gas is set to High and water rate is set to Low. My unit, which I tested today does not conform to this standard. I was lucky to get a 20 degree rise from a 23 degree input. Drop the input temp like i would expect when camping to… Read more

about 10 to 15 degrees in winter and I will be struggling to achieve 35 degrees C. The trouble shooting suggests re-circulating the water to get the input temperature hotter??? How is this supposed to occur when it does not come with a pump. I have purchased this unit on basis that I have access to pressurised water supply where I go. Customer service is an absolute Joke.... Phone customer service has been discontinued, automated replies to emails, no one attending to messenger. This company is an absolute Joke avoid like the plague.

Product needs to be left on the kerbside for collection – This product is highly temperamental, causing troubleshooting in various components/connections. It is extremely unreliable, and appears to affect most purchasers in the same manner. The astonishing thing is that Joolca have revised this product into its second version-my purchase ( V2 ), and have an extensive schedule of how to correct… Read more

functional problems with the unit, rather then designing and engineering it to be the usable and efficient unit that they market it to be.

It is a $400.00 plus paper weight at best.
