A faucet control device comprising (a) a hollow sleeve member having one outlet and two, axially spaced and opposite each other, inlets capable of being connected with hot and cold water conduits, the latter having separate control handles, and (b) a piston slidable in the sleeve for movement between a first inserted position in which said inlets are blocked and a second retracted position in which said inlets communicate with said outlet, so that the flow can be regulated independently of the hot and cold water controls. As said piston moves between either of said positions the flow of water varies depending on the amount of its movement. Said outlet acting in this case as a flow passage, can be connected with a spout provided with a valve for selectively diverting the flow of water between two outlets for tub and shower use.
