Can anybody identify who manufactured this roman tub faucet?

Asked Mar 12, 2012, 10:17 PM — 10 Answers
I want to update my bathroom. The sink faucet is easy as I am replacing the vanity top as well, I figured out that the shower trim is Pfister, but the roman tub is a mystery. I just want to change the faucet and handles as there is no way to get in to change the valves etc. The place was built in 1998. Can anybody help with the identification?

Most whirlpool tubs have access either by removing the apron or a end plate. These are service access. Double check to see where your access is.

Is there any brand name on the spout? Is the apron, (the front piece) removable? Back to you, Tom

With the handles removed, it kind of looks like a Price Phfister to me

It's because the Mods don't like us Bob. Wouldn't let me give you a greenie either.

Hi

Thanks for your feedback. I have contacted Phister customer relations and sent them the photo, but he said no. Also no luck with Delta. But the problem now is also that I will probably get it off, but apparently there is no way how to get any new spout on again, as I have no access from below/the side/anywhere. At least, that is what a local plumber told me after I called him for something else and he had a look at the spout as well?

Nobody told me renovations will be so complicated! As a woman I thought the hardest part was going to be the muscle work!

I tried to give you both one but it wouldn't let me either. And I'm a mod!! You both deserve "megagreenies" for the work you've done on The Plumbing Page. Thanks to both of you. Tom
