1950's bathtub faucets
Hard to find tub faucet w/handheld shower?
I am trying to replace an elderly woman's tub faucet with another one like it. The word Sudsie is on the top of the spout. Any idea where to find one?

Would this be a two or three knob faucet? More details please.
Back to you, Tom

Thanks for your quick response Tom. The tub faucet has two handles. Each handle has a supply line coming out of the side of it going to a handheld shower which mounts to the tub spout.

You have options here. You can replace the to handle valve or you can install a one handle valve using a chrome remodeled plate. One is just as easy to install as the other. We can help with either one. Let me know what you want to do. Back to you, Tom

I think eharris has a deck mounted faucet here, Tom, so a single handle valve probably won't work here.
Eharris, can you please post a picture for us... sounds like a very odd faucet if, "Each handle has a supply line coming out of the side of it going to a handheld shower which mounts to the tub spout".
Thanks...
Mark

Well it looks like I may have given you guys some false information. There are no supply lines coming out the tub handles. The water for the handheld shower actually comes out of the side of the tub spout. I'm not very saavy with computers so can someone tell me how to import a picture to my post?

Are you looking for something like this... see images?
If so, you can click on this link and it should bring you over to a Delta side outlet tub spout:
Delta Faucet U1072-PK Universal Showering Components Diverter Tub Spout, Chrome - Amazon.com
You want to remove the old spout before purchasing a new spout so you can be sure that you get the proper thread size/depth on the new one, OK?
If I'm off just post back and we can give info. On posting a pic... ;)
