Filtered Boiling and Chilled Water Zip HydroTap dispenses freshly filtered boiling and chilled water at the touch of a button so you can make perfect tasting tea and coffee in an instant. In a typical office where a kettle is boiled on average every twenty minutes HydroTap can save over an hour of working time each day. When it comes to energy saving, HydroTap excels. Independent tests conducted by Aston University in the UK show that HydroTap is up to 40% more energy efficient than a kettle. All units come with a 24hour 7 day timer, and boiling water units come with an additional sleep mode option allowing the unit to shutdown until boiling water is required. The compact and elegant design of the HydroTap is totally in keeping with a modern environment. It has won prestigious design awards in Australia, and in the UK was a finalist in the Grand Designs Kitchen Appliance Awards. Installation...
