    Bath Tub spout
    May sound simple to most of you but I'm having a hell of a time with this. The diverter on the bath tub spout lets half the water drian out of the spout and the other half comes out of the shower, I removed the spout and went to Lowe's home depot etc and they don't have one remotely close to this one. The end of the pipe is about 3 inches long with no threads, the old spout slids over that and then screws on to the end of the pipe near the wall. I cannot find a spout that has the area free so the end of the pipe can slide in and then screw on to the wall any suggestions. Its 3/4 inch

    Also 4 yrs ago the whole house had great pressure, now we don't have good pressure any where, no changes were made, any suggestions

    Thanks Dave

    Hi Dave,
    It's not all that easy to locate a 3/4" slip on diverter spout but if you will click on. http://www.absolutehome.com/web/cata...2987D5F2A151AA
    And check out what they have you may find what you want.
    Your house pressure's another story. How old is your house? What kind of piping do you have? Did this loss of pressure happen suddenly or did it come on gradually?
    Back to you. TOM
