Is the Rainbow Outdoor Shower right for you?

This is Dundalk's cedar barrel-style outdoor shower — a good option if you want something that reads as a design feature next to a pool, lake, or sauna, not just a utility fixture bolted to the side of the house. It ships as a prefab kit, and two people can put it together in under 4 hours for the larger sizes (under an hour for smaller ones), not counting plumbing hookup.

The main decision to make before ordering is Economy vs. Premium hardware: Economy is cold-water-only, Premium gives you hot and cold. If you're planning to use this after a sauna session in winter, Premium is the one that actually makes sense for that use case — cold-only won't cut it as a post-sauna rinse in cold weather.

Who it's for: anyone who wants an outdoor shower that looks intentional rather than purely functional, especially near a sauna, pool, or garden setup.
What we like: real cedar construction (your choice of Knotty or Clear Red), quick no-cutting assembly, built-in towel hook, and a genuinely useful FAQ section from the manufacturer covering winterizing and plumbing.
What to know before buying: if you want hot water for post-sauna use, you need Premium hardware, not Economy. Also budget for plumbing hookup separately — assembly time above excludes it. And it must be fully drained before winter or freeze damage isn't covered under warranty.

Before ordering, select your preferences:

• Wood: Knotty or Clear Red Cedar
• Shower Hardware: Economy (cold only) or Premium (hot & cold)
• Garden Hose Connect Kit: add if needed
• Accessories: review available add-ons

Key Features

FAQs
Can I stain or paint it? Yes, before or after assembly — it will grey naturally if left untreated.
How does plumbing work? Premium: hot & cold, ½" NPT fitting. Economy: cold only, NPT or garden hose connector.
Can it stay outside in freezing temps? Drain completely before winter — frozen residual water can damage plumbing and isn't covered under warranty.
What's needed for assembly? No cutting required; under 4 hours for larger models, under 1 hour for smaller ones with 2 people (plumbing separate).

Choosing between the two Dundalk showers:

the Rainbow (this model) is an enclosed cedar barrel with an explicit Economy (cold-only) or Premium (hot & cold) hardware choice, plus a built-in towel hook — better if you want a defined shower stall and confirmed hot water access.

The Sunlight is an open-air frame design in Western Red Cedar with stainless hardware and flexible wall/floor mounting — better if you want something more compact or discreet, though confirm hot-water plumbing directly with Select Saunas since it isn't specified the way it is on the Rainbow.
