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. |

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: http://www.amazon.com/Central-Brass-...d_sim_sbs_hi_3 |
