Does someone know what it costs to add hot water to an existing shower with cold water only? I know they have heaters that attach above the shower nozzle. how expensive and what is involved? I would guess some simple wiring and the plumbing connection,
Proper way is by means of an electrical DHW, propane or Tankless On Demand.
Or rooftop solar heater

How do you wash your feet?i think they are around RD$600 and attach to the shower head and heat up the water to either warm or hot. You need an electrician and given the electricity situation here it is wise to shower wearing rubber boots.

You'll need to run a water line from the hot water source to the shower, you will need a new faucet that mixes hot and cold water as the water from any normal water heater will be too hot to use on it's own. You will need either an electrical connection or a gas connection to the heater itself.
Not sure of your housing circumstances but if in a house with a yard, consider installing a complete outside shower as that could be easier than retrofitting the piping inside the house. For safety reasons, any electrical water heater needs to be no where near the shower or anywhere else where it can get wet for that matter and yes it needs to be grounded.
The OP was talking about a shower head which heats the water - no need to run from a water heater. It is hot water on demand as shown on this site https://www.amazon.com.mx/Electric-Alcachofa-instantánea-calentador-incluidos/dp/B01EEBSH78

I know a fair bit about electricity and I'm sorry, but I don't care if it is UL /CSA rated, I would never install an electrical appliance in a shower or bathtub in my home country and can't even bring myself to entertain such foolish an idea in this country.
