ABSTRACT:
A faucet with a single control arm for regulating water temperature and determining output destination includes a hot water passage, a cold water passage, a shower head outlet and a tub outlet which are communicable by the control arm which pivots a truncated cone received inside a T-shaped faucet body. If the shower head is the desired destination, then the control arm is moved to the left and the water paths inside the truncated cone align unsimultaneously with the water passages, therefore the water temperature can be adjusted. When the tub is the desired output, then the control arm is moved to the right, and the same is true for water temperature regulation.
