How does the boiling water tap work?
The boiling-water tap is connected to a water heater under the counter. The water heater provides boiling water within seconds. This is because boiling water, or water close to boiling point, is already stored in the water heater. A boiling-water tap has a standard lever for hot and cold water. There's a safety lever elsewhere on the tap that allows you to use boiling water. This is to prevent children from accidentally using boiling water.
Can a faucet be replaced?
Did you know that a standard faucet lasts about five years? This means it should be replaced during the life of your kitchen. A boiling water tap comes as a set, including clear instructions and installation materials. If you're not handy yourself, there are companies that can do it for you.
Does it fit in a showroom kitchen?
For a boiling-water tap, you'll need at least a cold water supply, electricity, and space in your kitchen cupboard. (A hot water supply isn't always necessary, depending on the brand.) The larger the boiler's capacity, the more space you'll need and the higher the initial purchase price. A boiling-water tap usually fits in the same recess as a standard tap. Sometimes this isn't the case; special escutcheons can be installed.
Why buy a boiling water tap?
One in three households already has a boiling-water tap. And for good reason, because it comes with many advantages. You can say goodbye to your kettle, which frees up counter space. Making a cup of tea or cooking pasta or rice is much faster, and you save water. You also use the water you draw; with a kettle, you usually have water left over.
