ABSTRACT:
A portable electric adapter unit is installed by removing the operating knobs or levers of an existing household faucet and locking the unit to the exposed valve stems. Switches on the unit control motors which drive a gear chain which, In turn, rotate the respective valve stems thereby controlling the temperature and flow of water. A liquid soap dispenser is included in the assembly as well as a pair of switches that allow for setting of the rotation direction of the motors during installation.
