California Faucets expands its Kitchen Collection with a versatile new line of Pot Fillers. Perfectly coordinating with existing Kitchen Collection ensembles, the Pot Fillers offer users an extra element of luxury and convenience. Sculptural and ergonomic, the Pot Fillers feature the same Italian-inspired design and California craftsmanship as the original Kitchen Collection. Also distinguishing the line extension is a large array of customizable handle options and finishes, making California Faucets one of only a few manufacturers to offer such a vast selection.

“Rather than a one-size-fits-all design approach, we took the next step with our Pot Fillers,” says Jeff Silverstein, President and CEO of California Faucets. “The ability to mix and match a large variety of handle styles and finishes gives designers and homeowners the opportunity to create a completely customized look in the kitchen,” explains Silverstein, adding that the extensive variety means consumers can typically find a California Faucets Pot Filler to coordinate with their existing standard kitchen faucet, if need be.

Two solid and robust faucet bodies, one contemporary in style and one more traditional, anchor the Pot Filler series. Each body comes with an array of handles to choose from. The 37 handle options include everything from delicate levers with sweeping s-curves and ornate crystals to substantial, yet sleek stick and blade designs. Each Pot Filler is made of the highest quality solid brass and contains no plastic parts. Plus, each features a secure and sturdy wall-mounting system that installs with ease.

After selecting the faucet body and handle style, designers and homeowners get to choose any one of the available 30-plus artisan finishes, which includes 15 PVD finishes with a lifetime guarantee against tarnishing. And like all California Faucets kitchen and bath faucets and accessories, buyers can be assured of a handcrafted finished look that’s produced by hand at the company’s Huntington Beach factory.

The dual handle Pot Filler design measures 22-3/16” wall to center and folds flat against the wall when not in use. Pot Fillers feature a max flow rate of 4.0 gpm at 60 psi. Prices range from $895 for Polished Chrome finish to $1,421 for Premium Finishes including Lifetime Polished Gold (PVD) and Carbon (PVD).

Chef Center named one of Beautiful Kitchens & Baths’ “30 Most Innovative Products for 2017”; other vanguard solutions include StillPure Franke Filtration App that monitors water usage via Bluetooth and Fast-In Faucets that bring DIYers into luxury market

Franke, the largest stainless steel kitchen sink manufacturer in the world and a leading name in kitchen faucets, showcased a range of technology and design innovations at the 2017 Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Orlando January 10-12 that demonstrated its commitment to immerse home chefs in luxury kitchen products defined by ingenuity, ease and environmental awareness.

Particularly noteworthy for melding form and function with technology to serve the home chef were Franke’s:

· All-in-one Chef Center: Named one of Beautiful Kitchens & Baths’ “30 Most Innovative Products for 2017”– the Chef Center enhances entertaining, simplifies cleanup and maximizes creativity for those who demand a cooking experience they can customize. Incorporating the capacity to both compost and store as well as offering all-inclusive accessories, the Chef Center is more of a sous chef than a sink – an extra hand in the kitchen instead of just a well-made receptacle. The Chef Center, now available in showrooms nationwide, is sold exclusively at Franke retailers.

· Industry-first StillPure Franke Filtration App: Franke’s StillPure Filtration System filters out limescale, metals, chlorine and more – providing users with the purest fresh water available directly from the kitchen faucet. The StillPure Franke Filtration App – available for mobile download in the Spring of 2017 – works with the FM100 Monitor (a Bluetooth monitor that easily attaches to the Filtration System) to track how many filtered gallons of water a household consumes and conveniently alerts users when it’s time to change the filter. It’s the definition of luxury for environmentally responsible consumers, whose water usage alerts are sent directly to their cell phone. Franke’s StillPure Filtration System will be sold exclusively at Franke retailers.

· Easy-to-install Fast-In Products: Franke’s ingenious Fast-In technology – featured on select top-mount sinks and faucets – allows Do-It-Yourself (DIY) homeowners to save time and money without sacrificing the superior quality, craftsmanship and performance they expect from the Franke brand. Franke’s Fast-In Quick Install Kitchen Sink System offers simple no-tools-required, top-mount installation; versatile single-bowl or double-bowl designs; and either traditional or hand-crafted, modern styles. Fashioned of Franke stainless steel, the faucets in Franke’s Fast-In Collection – Bern Pulldown, Bern Pro Pulldown, Bernadine Pulldown and Bernard Pullout – are beautiful and durable. They attach to the sink above the countertop in a few quick steps: simply insert the faucet base into the sink, locate the two mounting screws, and tighten with a Phillips screwdriver. Franke’s Fast-In products are available at select retail locations.

“Whether you need an all-encompassing sous chef, a green reminder about your water usage, or a DIY sink or faucet of the highest quality, Franke offers a range of smart kitchen solutions that redefine luxury and quality,” said Gary Langbo, President of Franke Kitchen Systems. “Our products create an unparalleled kitchen experience – customized to fit your lifestyle.”

This year at KBIS, Franke’s booth was a hot spot and the Chef Center was the scene of delectable interactive demos by Chef Billy Parisi, who also showed Kortney and Dave from HGTV’s Masters of Flip how to make the most out of Franke’s stand-out product when they stopped by for a visit.
