Single handle to two handle tub faucet conversion
Single handle to two handle tub faucet conversion...
My plumber says there is no "backplate" to hide the 4" hole of the single handle design. I also can't find any reference to anyone going from single to two handles, only two to one. Any tips or solutions on this? |

I have not looked but I doubt if there is any commonly available solution. Why do you want to switch? -- Joseph Meehan Dia duit |

Just get a good single handle and don't have the hot set too high at the water heater. I find it a lot easier to set the temperature with a good single handle control that a double. However some of the cheap ones ( I travel a lot) are difficult to control. -- Joseph Meehan Dia duit |

They have single handle ones with temp adjust digital readouts
Just set the temperature you want and enjoy! It remains preset forever or untill somone changes it. This is precise control |
