A pot filler faucet is an innovative addition to a kitchen with a single sink. It allows the user to fill pots and other vessels with water while cooking or when the sink is occupied. A filler faucet frees up space for preparation and cleaning, eliminates the need to walk a heavy pot from sink to stove, and lowers the chance of spilling water during transport.
No, pot filler faucets can run both cold and hot water. However, they do not have a mixer and can only stream water from the type of supply line they are connected to.
Generally, the pot filler faucet is installed on a wall anywhere between 16 and 36 inches above the stove's surface, or at a distance that works best for your personal needs. A good rule of thumb is to measure at least 3-4 inches above your tallest pot. A deck-mounted pot filler can also be installed on a countertop.
