Best Answer

It does not affect the temperature directly. What you are experiencing is the reduction in the water pressure of either the hot or cold water by way of it being re-directed to the other faucet.

So what you get is less pressure , let's sy of cold water and the same of hot making your temperature hotter. or vice versa you get less hot water and the same cold making yours colder.

I'm no plumber certainly but I understand that a larger diameter pipe reduces or eliminates this phenomenon.
