Bridge Faucet
 
Have an old utility sink in basement with a bridge faucet with hot and
cold water lines that feed in from the top. I'm guessing I'm screwed
trying to find a replacement? (probably 50 yr old setup or more) I've
searched with no luck so far.


Would be a shame if so. It's an old concrete double utility that sits
flush against wall and without the proper faucet setup would either
require tearing up wall to re route plumbing or move it away from
wall. Either is not something I want to do.

I had the same problem a couple years ago and found one of these. There
are actually several different manufactuers and models available if you
do the searching. This one should work and is inexpensive:

cool, that's exactly what I need, never thought to look at Amazon,
either I wasn't using correct terms or I didn't go far enough past
Google's ad lings ;-P


THANK YOU!

I've got the same setup. Those are good valves.
A couple bucks for new washers and packing fixed mine.

The wonders of the internet. Way back prior to the 'net I resorted to
making my own from pvc fittings.
