Zusammenfassung:	A faucet assembly including a faucet body having a spout, a base, and hot and cold water flow control valves. The base houses a thermostatic mixing cartridge that tempers hot and cold water and has passageways that place tempered water from the thermostatic mixing cartridge and a cold water passageway in selective fluid communication with the outlet of the spout. During use, mixed water from the thermostatic mixing cartridge is regulated by the hot water control valve, cold water is regulated by the cold water control valve, and both the mixed water and the cold water are further mixed at a juncture of the mixed water passageway and the cold water passageway prior to exiting the faucet assembly via the outlet of the spout.
