We finally simply couldn't stand the cheesy, ridiculously cheeeeeeeeeeeep faucets that came with our 318SAB. The plastic fixtures were cloudy, scaling and starting to corrode. The finish on them was basically finished. We decided on a Sears Best bathroom faucet and an American Standard unit for the Galley. Both of them are uni-valve and are priced in the upper middle end of the spectrum - more than we would normally pay. However, since we are enjoying our time "living The Dream" we decided to splurge a little bit.
I was astonished at the abysmal cheapness of the OEM fixtures, it's really hard to understand how we can pay close to $50,000.00 for an RV and have it come with faucets that couldn't have cost more than $20.00 a piece.
While I had the system basically down and off I also installed shut off valves on the supply lines for the faucets. I hate having to shut all the water down to make repairs or changes to the system. I plan on installing shut off valves on all of the major supply lines, toilet, outside "shower" etc.
Cheers All!
