4 benefits of a boiling water tap

There are a few appliances out there which have truly revolutionised the kitchen: boiling water taps are one such example. These devices have become very popular both at home and at the office. Wondering what all the fuss is about? Here are a few of the benefits of a boiling water tap.
Speed
Perhaps the most obvious benefit of the boiling water tap is its speed. There was a time when boiling water meant waiting for a stove to heat up. Then the kettle came along and reduced the waiting time to a couple of minutes. Now even that seems slow in comparison to boiling water taps. With a boiling water tap you can access boiling water instantly.
This means no more waiting for the kettle to boil. Hot drinks such as coffee or tea can be made even more quickly. Simply place a teabag in your cup and pour hot water on top, directly from the tap. Another advantage of the boiling water tap is the time it saves during cooking. Saucepan-based meals like pasta can be prepared in less time as there’s no need to wait for the water to heat up. The time-saving benefit makes these taps a good option for both offices and busy homes.
Efficiency
Efficiency is a great benefit of using a boiling water tap. At Total Soft Water we sell Quooker Boiling-Water Taps which use just 3p worth of electricity per day, making them more energy efficient than most kettles. They also allow for a more efficient use of your space. Quooker taps have a compact vacuum insulated tank which fits underneath your sink. The device itself sits over your sink, just like an ordinary tap. Unlike a kettle, this takes up no extra space on your kitchen surfaces.
Best of all, the speed of a boiling water tap allows you to be more efficient with your time. Whether you’re busy at home or at work, you can brew your morning coffee quickly and then get on with your day.
Flexible design
Boiling water taps are available in a huge range of designs to suit every kitchen. Quooker taps come in a variety of shapes, including ‘Basic’, ‘Design’, ‘Modern’, and ‘Classic’. Each one is also available in a range of finishes. These include polished chrome, brushed chrome, stainless steel effect, and gold-plated brass. The ‘Classic’ style tap is also available in a bronze finish. Whether your home is traditional or modern, there’s a boiling water tap to suit your décor.
Safety features
Safety is a key consideration when installing a boiling water tap. Boiling water can be dangerous, regardless of the appliance you use. That’s why it’s essential to make sure your tap has the appropriate safety features. The Quooker tap has a ‘push-and-turn’ handle to help avoid it being turned on unintentionally. The fact that the tap is fixed in place also means it won’t be knocked over in the way that a kettle or saucepan could be.
