The Pot Filler: Elevating Luxury and Efficiency in the Australian Kitchen
Welcome to Faucet Strommen’s dedicated range of pot filler taps. Once exclusive to professional environments, the pot filler has become the ultimate statement of luxury and efficiency in the contemporary Australian kitchen. Mounted directly on the splashback above your cooktop, this ingenious fixture eliminates the strain of carrying heavy, water-filled pots from the sink to the stove, saving you time and effort when preparing large meals.
As Australian-made producers of the finest tapware, we craft our pot filler taps Australia wide to provide seamless integration with your existing Faucet Strommen tapware and accessories. Our commitment to design and engineering ensures that this unique addition will be both a striking visual feature and a high-performance cooking tool for decades to come.
Engineering for Convenience: The Faucet Strommen Pot Filler
Our kitchen pot filler systems are designed with meticulous attention to the functional demands of the modern home chef. They are not merely ornamental; they are robust tools engineered for convenience and safety.
Dual Shut-Off Valves for Enhanced Safety
A critical feature of every Faucet Strommen pot filler is the incorporation of dual shut-off valves. One valve is located at the wall connection, and a secondary valve is positioned at the end of the swing arm. This dual mechanism provides an extra layer of safety, allowing you to stop the water flow directly at the spout. This is essential for preventing leaks and drips over your cooktop and splashback.
Double Swing Arm with Extended Reach
Our pot filler taps feature a highly articulated, double swing arm, providing an extended reach of up to 584mm from the wall. This ensures the spout can comfortably cover all burners on even the widest commercial-style ranges or induction cooktops. When not in use, the arm folds neatly back to the wall or splashback, maintaining a streamlined, uncluttered look above your stove tap area.
Designed for Cohesion: Finish and Style
The pot filler is a highly visible piece of tapware that should complement your kitchen’s overall design. Faucet Strommen makes this coordination simple by offering our pot filler taps in the same comprehensive range of finishes as our sink mixers, allowing for complete design harmony.
The Perfect Match for Your Kitchen
Choose a finish that ties in seamlessly with your other fixtures:
- Matte Black: Provides a bold, contemporary contrast against light cabinetry or tiles.
- Brushed Nickel/Chrome: A subtle, timeless choice that suits most modern and transitional kitchens.
- Brushed Gold/Brass: Adds a touch of warmth and high-end luxury, making the pot filler a true feature piece.
Our pot fillers are available across our signature collections – including Pegasi, Cascade, Zeos, and Zero – ensuring the finer details, from the handle style to the arm shape, perfectly match your chosen kitchen aesthetic.
Installation and Water Supply Requirements
A pot filler is specifically installed for high-volume tasks that require cold water.
- Cold Only Supply: Faucet Strommen pot filler taps are designed to be connected to the cold water only supply. This is the recommended choice as cold water is generally considered fresher for cooking purposes.
- Australian-Made Quality: As our products are designed and engineered in Australia, they adhere to all necessary local plumbing and WELS standards, though WELS rating is generally not required for cold-only, non-mixing fittings.
- Placement: The ideal height is approximately 300mm to 350mm above the cooking surface, allowing enough room for your largest stockpot to fit comfortably underneath.
The Luxury and Value of an Australian Pot Filler
Choosing a Faucet Strommen pot filler is an investment in both convenience and property value. This product is a hallmark of a custom, high-end kitchen design, and our commitment to all-brass construction and in-house manufacturing guarantees superior longevity.
