Just a little something I whipped up to solve the age-old problem of separate hot and cold water taps in a rented apartment where you can’t start replacing the plumbing. Cheap and works well.

I can’t say I have ever thought of this as a problem…
Then again you have never had a sink with separate water faucets for hot and cold, not common at all but with such a set up you have your choice of really hot water or really cold water no where in between. Me I would have replaced the plumbing or made the land lord replace it as I do believe there should be building codes on having an adjustable faucet. Quick hack none the less.
I’ve used these..really bad when trying to take a shower and the shower head is broken, try mixing hot and cold water from the spigot..ouch!!!
I have the same problem in my bathroom. Don’t really think my landlord would go through all the trouble to replace it. So never asked either. So this is a nice and quick fix!
does the water mix properly though? and where can we get one if it does!
Hi there, how did u build it? Could i buy something similar?
I have the same prob in my flat and it’s a pain in the winter not to have warm water, just stone cold or flipping hot…
Thanks
Any idea how i can contact this Steve Donelly? Can’t find him on facebook!
