But then, I like experiments and found this faucet. It is design for floor mount over claw-feet tub, but if I skip the extension, it should fit the sink.
What design you guys like better?
It looks like the same design, just without the thermostatic control.
I followed you down the path with the previous one, and I did have one problem a couple years ago which I mentioned here. Why are you on the market for another one? What happened to the one you put in a few years ago? If you had a problem, I want to watch out for the same thing on mine.
I like the old one better. The thermostatic controls are a huge benefit for dealing with the nuances of camper water. I always hated the stock design which would always go cold for a moment after shutting off the flow at the shower head. Would waste a couple seconds of water every time avoiding the cold. Not a problem with this new one.
Something to consider... This new one you picked out is for a bathtub. Because it is used for filling a tub, it may not have any flow restrictions in it. Now I am absolutely the last person to start pandering to water conservation and I despise government mandated controls forced upon me....but I do know the size of truck camper tanks and a full flow faucet would be a bad thing.
