single handles are all well and good, but I’d prefer a hot knob, a cold knob, and a flow knob. I’ve never been clear why this isn’t done, I suppose its probably cost. Maybe there is some wear and tare reason?
Because sometimes you want full cold, sometimes you want full hot. Yes you could use a three way valve but you’d generally lose maximum water pressure.

Seperate hot and cold knobs in showers are against code in a lot of places
Isn’t this thread about sinks?
Ah shit, you’re right. My brain just saw ‘faucet’
Why would you need separate hot and cold knobs if all that matters is the ratio between them?

I’m so confused. What do the cold and hot knows even do?
