how do I use an antique clawfoot tub with modern plumbing hook ups?

KMS Woodworks on Apr 03, 2011Clawfoots have either in the tub mounted fixtures or wall or deck mounted. There are dozens of modern replacements available. I have ordered a few sets from Signature hardware. Here is an example of a deck mounted type. http://www.hometalk.com/Kevin/project/1151Helpful Reply

Classic Clawfoot Tubs on Dec 16, 2013A lot depends on the tub you have. Specifically, if your tub has existing holes already drilled, then you may be a little limited. if it's an older tub, my guess is that it has holes predrilled in the end wall of the tub that are probably 3 3/8" on center. If that's the case, I would go with one of the faucet types shown on this page: http://www.classicclawfoottubs.com/clawfoot-bathtub-faucets_tub-wall-mount-faucets.html Otherwise, if no predrilled holes in your tub, you can go with a freestanding faucet, or a faucet mounted directly to the wall.Helpful Reply
