Typically, kitchen taps are located above the sink. It seems to be the most natural place: here the containers are filled, and the dishes are washed, and the drain into the sewer is located in the same place. True, there are some inconveniences: you have to drag heavy pots of water from the tap to the stove. If we weigh the pros and cons, then the question disappears: the filling tap above the stove - why is it needed? And in the United States, the presence of such a tap in the kitchen is generally a common occurrence. There it is called Pot Filler. A Russian citizen does not even know about such cranes. Even sellers in specialized plumbing stores listen to the buyer's request to show such a request with amazement. But you can still buy this product - through the online store.

Advantages and disadvantages of this accommodation option
The remote tap is used to supply cold filtered water. Moreover, it can be connected to an individual filter and refuse a large filter under the sink. This product has both advantages and disadvantages.
The main task that the remote crane above the stove solves is avoiding the need to drag a large pot of liquid from the sink to the stove. This is true for older people and weak women. It should be remembered that a folding crane is not a mixer. It is intended only for cold water, because hot water is not added to the pot with borscht.
The hinged design of the crane allows it to be folded like an accordion and stowed away close to the wall. If necessary, the tap unfolds again, and its drain part can be above any burner on the stove. It is very convenient to use the wall tap when cleaning the stove.
In order to fill the pot with a conventional tap arrangement, it has to be placed in the sink. And there are always traces of food and stale water. All this sticks to the bottom of the pan, and then bakes on the stove. The overhead tap eliminates this problem.
Another significant point: usually the kettle is filled several times a day, and if there is a wall you can not drag it from the sink to the stove and back, but keep it on the stove all the time and there it fill.
But if you forget to turn off the tap in time, then water will flow through the side of the pan onto the stove and onto the floor. Yes, you have to take a rag and clean everything up, because the stove does not provide for a drain into the sewer.
But the main disadvantage of such a product is its high price. You will also have to pay for the connection of the water pipe to the stove. In total, the installation of such a crane will cost about 9,000 rubles.
Construction and design options
Many design and construction options for wall faucets are available online. The appearance can shine with chrome steel and brushed metal. And all kinds of colors are offered.
To extend the drain to the desired burner, you can use not only a collapsible, but also a long flexible hose. In this case, the sink and stove should be side by side.
The tap does not have to be wall-mounted, it can be counter-mounted. This is convenient when it is necessary to carry out installation with minimal disruption to the appearance of the kitchen walls. A similar situation arises when the decision to install a crane above the slab occurs after the completion of an expensive repair. In addition, sometimes this option allows you to save on water pipes.
