As you search for faucets, you may discover that different suppliers call them by different names. For example, one company may call a claw-foot tub faucet a leg-tub faucet, as these tubs sit up off the floor on tiny legs or feet. Another may call it an antique tub faucet, as claw-foot tubs were popular well over 100 years ago.
If you plan to live in the house for some time, it might pay to buy extra faucet cartridges. Sometimes these parts can be tough to find years later when you need them.
Be sure to follow the installation instructions with respect to flushing out the water lines before you do the final faucet connection. Debris in the water lines can clog faucet parts when you turn on the water for the first time.
