Hello-
We recently had a new 3 handle 1 spray tub and shower faucet installed.
After the man finished he showed my wife that it was "touchy". (I was not home during the install)
Now the only way to shut the water off is to turn the diverter knob so it is exactly half way between the shower side and the tub side. The actual hot and cold water handles do not shut the water off if the diverter knob is fully in the shower or tub position.
Has anyone ever heard of this? I can't believe it is correct.
Granted the faucet is a cheapy (we were looking for a short term replacement until we get the full bathroom remodel done), but I have never heard of the knobs not turning the water on and off.
Thanks for any input.
-Ron
