The faucet's actual holes will always be smaller than the pipe running to the tub, unless the pipes are plastic. : this is how I found this message board because I bought a bargain American Standard whirlpool tub at Home Depot except the sales people want to sell me the "ONLY" faucet that will work for the tub for $200+ dollars. The tub doesn't even have pre-drilled holes on the deck and specifies not to drill your own. : Well I saw a bunch of faucets on Ebay and now totally confused. The GPM thing caught my attention. My tub holds 61 gallons full so if I get a 30 GPM faucet it should fill in 2 minutes, but what is the faucet holes are smaller than the pipe leading to the tub? : Plus there is a nightmare drain assembly. : : : i am a single mother trying to do my own plumbing. : : does a roman tub faucet have 3/4 inch fittings suitable for a whirlpool tub? : : does the 3/4 inch reduce to 1/2 inch? : : gpm ??? : :
