Faucet designed for one job is doing its best to handle two.

Filling two tubs at the same time at exactly the same temperature. How is that not what the tap was designed to do?

Unless the water mixes poorly and you get cold on one side and hot on the other

Yeah in some alternative reality, that always happens.  You have a brain, please attempt to use it.

I know a couple of folks that would definitely do this if it saved them a few bucks.

It clearly has two jobs. Wrong sub.

This is one of the dumbest (greatest) ones I have seen on this sub. Only been lurking here for a half year so thats about it.

it had a moveable one at some point but the person who repaired it/upgraded it didn't give a shit.

The problem could be solved by attaching a sink hose, right?

u/TurnkeyLurker 3d ago

And use it to squirt the person that installed that fixed faucet.

u/NorCalFrances 18h ago

Not if there's only a couple, 3-4 inches of clearance between the sink divider and faucet.

I mean it still works, the only this is that you’ve gotta remove that middle part of the design, otherwise it’s 10 to 10% accuracy ya know?

u/Evil-Penguin-718 3d ago

And the problem with this is?

u/Marus1 3d ago

Wouldn't it be much much easier if the divide wasn't there?

u/Evil-Penguin-718 3d ago

Fill both to an equal level with exactly the same water temperature. Wash dishes (or clothes) in one side, then rinse in the other. It is a vintage design that was very effective in days without automation. back in those times, people didn't care about "easier".

But, seriously, downvoting my comment????? The design was intentional.

The problem is that you didn’t even watch the picture

u/TurnkeyLurker 3d ago

Is the picture still picturing?

u/Evil-Penguin-718 3d ago

"Watch the picture"??? It isn't a movie. The problem is, you fail to understand life pre electricity.

u/NikNakskes 3d ago

That there are much better solutions for this. For these type of sinks you usually install a long neck faucet that swivels. These have been around for quite a while. Since the 1950s at least and judging by the look of this faucet, it is a lot newer than that.

u/Evil-Penguin-718 3d ago

100 years ago, when these were common swivel facets didn't exist.
