Abstract: A remotely-controlled valve is disclosed having a faucet-attachable control valve member and a foot-control member for generating air or water pressure which is communicated to the control valve member by means of a flexible tube or conduit. The air or water pressure urges a piston and a rigidly attached rod within the control valve member against a control ball valve away from an aperture connecting a first water chamber connected to the water supply from the faucet and a second water chamber connected via an exit passage to a spray head. Manual override means are provided to force the control ball valve in an open position regardless of the operation of the foot-control member.
