Disclosed is a dual-purpose faucet comprising a faucet pipe, a ball valve for gradually blocking and unblocking the faucet pipe at the free end thereof, and a fountain check valve extending through the upper surface of the faucet pipe from within the faucet pipe. When a fluid is being discharged from the faucet pipe, and, at which point, as the control means is operated so as to block the faucet pipe, the backpressure created as a result thereof, upon reaching a threshold pressure, causes the fountain check valve to open allowing the fluid to pass therethrough resulting in the discharge of a fluid jet therefrom; the trajectory of the fluid jet adjustable by adjusting the control means as adjusting the control means regulates the backpressure.
