I am currently looking for new faucets, starting with the bathroom. Right now, there is a common single-lever mixer, but in our case, the water is either hot/warm or cold and should not be mixed—or it would be pointless.
Is there another solution besides having two cold water taps connected separately to the respective pipes, since washbasins usually only have one hole?
Basically something like the old-style taps with turn knobs on the left and right, but without the turning handles. Maybe with push buttons?
It should be a bit modern. Also, you don’t want to have to turn the taps for ages until the strongest flow finally comes out.
I have also thought about sensor faucets, but I’m bothered by the batteries.
Somehow, I am missing the right term to search for (searching for “two-temperature faucet” or “faucet without mixer” returns no results).

In the shower, or do you have to leave the shower? I shower like many people, starting warm, then cold.
You don’t have to leave, it’s enough to just open the door and reach out with your arm.
But this also brought a new insight: the potential new tankless water heater wouldn’t need 18 kW anymore. Maybe it already helps if, for example, you buy one with 10 kW and it runs close to its limit (though not fully). At least the second tankless water heater will eventually need replacing; it’s probably 20 years old or more, judging by its condition.
