Working on the plumbing in garage bathroom and got to thinking it would be easy to plumb hot as well as cold hose bibs, problem being there would be no mixing capability like an inside fixture.
Anyone ever do something like this? Is there such a thing as a frost proof mixing bib? Did a little Googling and came up empty, but will do more, thought the experts here might know of something I’m missing.

I saw a set up on the counter at the plumbing supply. It was the thing you are looking for, so it's out there now. Maybe someone will give you a manufacturer name-or email me and I'll stop by there tomorrow-good coffee............no donuts.

They show the one on the front cover, but I don' tknow if hey have other models are not.
It is an old fashion style website and you need to go through product by product.

I have a different variety (Woodford) that was offered a few years ago, and it is craaaap.

I looks great, but flow restriction is severe, and you need to push and turn the hot handle to turn it on, which doesn't work anymore, and I only used it twice.
I've been waiting for the Moen to become available to replace the Woodford, and it looks like it now is.
