I did this once, with a great copper tea kettle I got as a wedding gift. Well there is a product that can be installed by a plumber that fits under your sink, and on top of the sink there will be a spout. It is called an Instant Hot Water Dispenser.
With this marvel of technology all you have to do is press a lever and you have instant hot water for your tea, cocoa, soup and so much more. There is no waiting! This wonderful device gives you instant hot water at about 200 degrees F and the temperature can be lowered a little if desired.
This would not only be a nice add on convenience to your sink that will make life easier, but for the elderly it could prevent scalding and burned pot bottoms from forgetfulness. It could be a blessing for people with severe arthritis that has a hard time grasping things. It could also be given as a gift to a well- deserving mom, dad, friend, or relative.
