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?http://flic.kr/p/bCDVEa

there is no way to get in to change the valves 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.

I just want to change the faucet and handles You mean 6the handles and spout don/'t you? Can you take a picture of what you wish to replace? Let me know, Tom

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

Looking good Harold. I'd give you a greenie but that option does not appear on this thread, what's up with that? Tom do you know why we can't rate this one?

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

Could be, and look, when was the last time you saw a thread being answered by 3 expects and nobody else?

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 gave greenie to both of you (Bob & Harold) and it took it, good luck.
