Uh, yeah, I think I said the proper term early on in this thread. ;-)

Unless you already have the water line to the stove, you'll also have
to pay for that.

Just a note: If you have a commercial soft water system in your home,
make sure you don't have that soft water in the line to the pot
filler. You should always use regular cold water in a cooking pot.
