i did post a picture last time but didn't have measurements
from centre to centre tap is 170mm.

i cant put a standard mixer in due to the overflow and even if i did it woudlnt meet water regs due to no air gap any ideas

only thing i can think of is a mixer but one that stands off the side with two elbows to raise it above the overflow

also its a free standing bath the other idea i had was to build a stud wall and put wall mounted taps in havent run it past the customer yet but i would spoil the idea of a free standing which this is

Thanks
Lee

You could fit a mixer as long as it had back flow prevention measures. But I would go for new Globe Taps.

thanks picasso but the taps they have are fine... there after mixer taps the they can do away this that plastic thing you can see in the pic.

thanks cozzmic i did think of putting some checks on the pipework but then how would i work around the waste the mixers would fit flush on the bath or would they not? edit sorry ive just looks up globe taps and some seem to have a stem..

have you got any links?



Thanks
