Let me guess, Kettles heat the water, and teapots serve the
tea. 

In the USA, we have coffee pots usually rather big, and tea
kettles which are smaller. Coffee pots brew/percolate coffee, and
metal tea kettles heat water for whatever purpose. 

We do have tea pots, which are small ceramic pots for brewing
and serving tea. Keep in mind that we use almost exclusively
tea bags. Lipton being the most popular. Though a few organic
diehards still use loose tea, but very few.
