Hello


I bought this bath for a bathroom refit:


www.betterbathrooms.com/lisbon-1650-x-750-luxury-freestanding-bath


The taps selected to go with it were the Bath Shower Mixer 4 Hole Set:


[DLMURL]http://www.adora-bathrooms.co.uk/products/tap-collection/style.php[/DLMURL]

Excuse <dot> but post won't submit with URLs for some reason.

URLs sorted. Croppie

The problem is the diverter does not fit between the two skins of the bath as the inlets / outlets are in a T with the third exiting at 90 degrees rather than all pointing vertically downwards.


Have tried every which way to fit them but the lack of space and difficult working angle, plus considering cutting the back of the bath out, have resulted in no joy.


Is there anywhere I can get another diverter, keeping the taps, where the inlets / outlets are all in the same plane pointing downwards. Have tried the local supplier and looked online but I was hoping if someone had similar challenges in the past they may have a diverter that would fit.


Many thanks.

you are finding out why most tradesmen dont buy off internet sellers. sorry but as i am lazy i cant look at where you got your kit from as it is all too hard to rewrite the addresses

if you havent drilled any holes, swap it for a 2 hole attachment and forget the 4 hole which is probably best for a corner bath set against a wall. if not, havent a clue unless we can see what your on about, doubtful if you can bodge it in myself.
 
You could cap off the 90 degree connection and just use the retractable handset.

You don't need two on a freestanding bath
