If you change your tub spout to a kind that has an attachment for a hand held shower, you might be able to make that work. See the following website: http://www.alsons.com/accessories/tubspouts/products/1072.aspx

Hi, I'm not sure which country you're from, but I'm guessing the US? Well here in Australia we have two options available. The first is a white rubber hose about 3 ft. long. It slides over the tap (faucet) head, and has a shower head on the other end. This won't work if your tap (faucet) head is threaded to take an aerator. In Australia, they cost about A$14. The other actually replaces your faucet, and screws onto the water pipe connection. This then gives you the choice of either filling your tub or bath, or by pulling a switch, diverting water to the shower, which is attached to a 6 ft. long chrome flexible hose. The faucet connection is also chrome. This comes with a shower rose holder which can be attached to the wall to make the shower a 'hands free" The only thing I wouldn't be sure about is whether this would suit your Plumbing specifications. This unit is designed to be installed to 1/2 inch BSP (British Standard Pipe) thread. These units cost around A$90. Hope this helps.

You can attach a number of shower heads to your tub, but check with the tub manufacturer first for a list of compatible faucets.

Where to find part for a 50 year old tub faucet. Hot water handle just spins and now needs wrench to open and close?

The faucet still works but the handle is stripped? You can get new handles that will work on any faucet. They have a square adapter that attaches to the faucet stem with a set screw and then the new handle fits on the square adapter. Also deal with a plumber supply store rather than "Big Box" store, they will have some odd parts, not available from the big chains.

Also, it will filter over 2000 gallons of water before you will ever need to replace the filter on it.


Can you disconnect the sprayer and still use the faucet?

If the sprayer hose screws onto the faucet, you can get a cap for that fitting. If it pushes into the faucet, I do not believe there is any plug available for that type. You have to have something on the hose fitting or water will come out when you turn the faucet on.
