Default Technical term for the pot filler?
what do you call the faucet that fills the pots from over the stove? Never had to call one of these out. It's too high.

Just curious, why do you say it is too high?

Pot filler faucet or "kettle faucet". The height is fine.

Probably some local "Pot Height Code" that we are not aware of.

Here, with a small pot, you just lift it up under the faucet, and with a very large pot,,, well.....

There is no actual 'standard' for wall mounted "pot filler faucets" installation height. Most manufacturers just make a cursory statement to install above the tallest intended pot height.

I would say something like, "it's height above the cooktop is considered to be unconventional and suggest that the client view it for themselves regarding acceptability."


“The things that will destroy America are peace at any price,
prosperity at any cost, safety first instead of duty first,
the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.”
Theodore Roosevelt

The only time I found one of those, on the other side of the wall was a refrigerator and in the refrigerator was a pony keg of beer. The Seller, a wannabe gourmet chef and professional armchair quarterback, needed his beer while he was in the kitchen cooking for all the weekend sports parties that he hosted.
