Interesting HD story. As I said in another post everything except plumbing is coming from a small lumber yard. So I bought a shower fixture and a tub fixture that my wife picked out at HD. My plumber shows up to do the rough in yesterday and asks "what the hell are those?" I told him they were for the tub and shower. He then told me that the type of fixture that my wife picked out would not pass code as there were no anti-scald valves on them. Illegal in RI in new construction. Do you think the nitwits at HD said anything? No way. $300 worth of fixtures. I took them back and spoke with the manager. He could have cared less. Go my money back and went to a plumbing supply house.

No boat, back in the suds.
