As an old man (71), I'm beginning to love baths. The one single drawback to baths is that I have a large tub and it takes too long for the water to rise to the level I like. So I immediately get discouraged and just take a shower instead.
So, it finally dawned on me. Could I buy a complete mixing valve w/trim setup where I could feed the mixing valve with 3'4" water lines and a 3/4" output flow tub spout; but just have a 1/2' line out the top of the spout for the shower? The shower doesn't really matter, but I figure the tub would fill a whole lot faster - like before I get discouraged.
Is this possible? I'm on a fixed income so I can't afford a lot of money, but the good news is, I can do the work myself. Well, I can get down on my back to scoot under the house to do the work. Getting out from under the house and standing again "may" be a problem!
Would you have some products or know of two or three that would fit my needs?
Thank you very much!
