Freestanding tubs can use deck mount faucets, wall mount faucets, or freestanding faucets.<\/p>\n<p>The only faucet that is on the Sam\u2019s Club website that goes with these tubs is the Athena Freestanding Bathtub Faucet. It mounts on the floor next to the tub. It is tall enough for any of these tubs and includes a hand-held shower with a 60\u201d hose.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7082\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7082\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7082\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.projectsmallhouse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/OVE_Decors-Athena_freestanding_faucets.jpg?resize=500%2C450&ssl=1\" alt=\"OVE Decors Athena Freestanding Bathtub Faucet\" width=\"500\" height=\"450\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7082\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">OVE Decors Athena Freestanding Bathtub Faucet<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>OVE Decors Athena Freestanding Bathtub Faucet<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Modern and minimalistic, the Athena faucet is a striking and strong free standing addition to your bathroom.
