FAQs About Instant Hot Water Taps
1. What is an instant hot water tap and how does it work?
An instant hot water tap is a kitchen faucet connected to an under-sink boiler tank that delivers near-boiling water (up to 98°C) on demand. The system heats filtered water in a compact tank and dispenses it instantly through a specially designed spout with safety features.
2. Is the water from an instant hot water tap actually boiling?
Not quite. Our system heats water up to 98°C, which is just below boiling point. This temperature is ideal for tea, coffee, cooking, and cleaning-without the risks associated with steam and full-boil water.
3. Are instant hot water taps safe for families with children?
Yes. Our taps include a child-safe locking lever that must be pressed down and pulled to activate hot water. The spout is fully insulated, so it's safe to touch even when hot water is flowing. A spring-back mechanism stops the flow instantly when released.
4. Do I need a plumber to install an instant hot water tap?
Not necessarily. Our taps are designed for easy DIY installation. If you're comfortable with basic plumbing and have a 13A power outlet under your sink, you can likely install it in under 2 hours. We also offer video guides and support if needed.
5. What is the difference between a 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 hot water tap?
3-in-1 Tap: Delivers regular hot, cold, and boiling water.
4-in-1 Tap: Includes all 3 functions plus filtered cold water-ideal for replacing bottled still water.
Both come with a heating tank and the first-stage filter included.
6. How much space does the system take under the sink?
The system is compact and space-efficient. The tank fits neatly in most standard kitchen cabinets and only requires a 13A socket within 600mm. You'll still have room for everyday storage.
7. Do I need to replace any parts regularly?
Yes. We recommend changing the water filter every 5–6 months to maintain water quality and protect the heating tank from scale buildup. The tap itself has a 5-year warranty and is built for long-term use.
8. Can I drink the water directly from the tap?
Absolutely. The water is filtered before it enters the tank, removing chlorine, odor, and other impurities. It's safe and clean for direct consumption, tea, coffee, and cooking.
9. How long does an instant hot water tap last?
With proper maintenance and timely filter replacement, our taps can last well beyond 5 years. All units come with a 5-year warranty covering performance and parts.
10. Can I use the tap even if I don't have high water pressure?
Yes, our systems are designed to operate efficiently in most household water pressure conditions. If you're unsure, we can help you check compatibility before purchase.
