Hey all - I'm putting a Porcher Reprise deck-mounted tub filler in my bathroom, and have not been able to find the right sized flexible line to connect to my shutoff.
The Porcher faucet has large, 1" threaded connection points for the lines. Looking at the big orange box store, I haven't seen anything with the right ends on them to connect these to my standard shutoff valves. The lines will be hidden behind the clawfoot tub, but I still want something that a) is of high quality and b) is reasonable looking. Braided stainless lines would be fine - not looking for flexible pipe.
I haven't had a chance to go to my better local plumbing supply place, and thought I'd ask the experts here in the meantime. Should I continue my quest for these lines, or should I instead buy (presumably available) reducers on the faucet connections to bring them down to a more typical size, whatever that may be.
Seriously, it looks like I could thread a garden hose onto the Porcher faucet.
