From low to high budget - the conversion to a camper!

A camper offers a variety of options, especially if you want to travel. And if you have a van or a van, you can convert it into a camper yourself. Since the space for the conversion is limited depending on the vehicle model, you should carefully consider what the camper should include. Bench, table, bed, small kitchen, small wet room? The possibilities can be varied. But depending on what you want to have, you have to plan it in detail. So that everything fits in the end. And of course the planned budget also plays a major role.

Supply lines during the renovation

The first step is to divide the camper. For example, if you want a wet room or at least a separate area for a possible toilet. You also need a partition for the technology. Alternatively, there are other options. For example, the storage space under a bench or in a closet. Of course, it also depends on what kind of technology you have. For a toilet, for example, a camping toilet is a good idea. This saves the installation of tanks, etc. With a camping toilet you have the advantage that you can simply remove it for emptying. It is therefore sufficient to install the toilet so that it is firmly integrated and separated from the rest of the interior. The situation is different with the electrics. Here you not only need electricity for light in the camper, but also under certain circumstances for a small refrigerator, for a stove and for a television. The first step here is to determine the need, including for sockets. In the further course you can then consider how to cover it. The easiest way is to consider batteries and a small solar system on the roof of the camper. In order to be able to lay the cables correctly, however, the inner lining must be removed.

Finished furniture or manufacture when remodeling

With regard to the equipment of the bench, kitchen and bed, the use of standard furniture, but also of individual designs, is appropriate. In the case of a kitchen, for example, a mini kitchen is also conceivable from the trade. This often includes not only a small stove with two plates, but also a small refrigerator and a sink. With regard to the water supply for the sink, either the installation of a small tank and an electric pump or the use of canisters with process water are possible. So you can simply drain the wastewater into the canister and get fresh water from a canister with a drain tap. And finally, you can also integrate a bench and a table, either from wood or from finished furniture. Alternatively, the design also offers itself so that you can make a bed by converting the bench and table. This would be particularly useful if you have little space. If you are looking for a faster method, you can also buy ready-made modules. For example from VanDOit from IoCamper or the German tuner Irmscher, Finally, depending on the extent of the conversion, approval by the TÜV may be required. To be on the safe side, you should already go to the TÜV with your conversion plans. Here it can also be clarified whether admission is possible. And it can also be checked whether the conversion is legally permissible at all.
