Why wait for water?

December 20th, 2011

Sinks, Taps & Water

Patience may be a virtue, but not everyone can be virtuous all the time.  We still get irritated when refilling the kettle or filtered water jug after some inconsiderate person leaves them empty.  Waiting for your filtered water to chill in the fridge to the best temperature is frustrating.  And all caffeine addicts will understand the pain of waiting for the kettle to boil for that morning coffee.

But this can all be avoided with a Zip HydroTap, which offers instant access to chilled or boiling filtered water, without the hassles.

Save kitchen space

Unlike a kettle that takes up space on your kitchen’s workbench, or a jug that occupies valuable fridge real estate, a Zip HydroTap elegantly finds a place and integrates itself into your kitchen.  The main body of the unit is installed out of sight beneath your benches, while the tap can be installed at your sink or atop its own attractive font to create a purpose-built water station.

Endless access to the water you want

A Zip HydroTap contains two hefty storage tanks of 1.5 L or more, one for hot and one for cold, each kept perpetually filled with water.  Unlike a jug, they never run out, due to being connected to your home’s water supply.  And while jugs need to be refrigerated or set to boil, Zip’s tanks maintain consistent water temperatures to give you instant results.

Long-lasting with easy maintenance

Kettles and jugs aren’t always long-term investments, often needing to be completely replaced once their filter goes.  The Sub-Micron filters in Zip Hydroptaps are good for 6000 litres (around 33,898 cups of coffee) or 12 months before needing to be changed, whatever comes first. A light on the unit will inform you automatically when it’s time for a change, and replacing the filters is simple enough that anyone can do it, with Zip able to provide help over the phone if required.  Keep the filters fresh, and the HydroTap could last forever.

Features to keep things safe and simple

Zip HydroTaps include a range of features to suit Australian households.  Their powerful pumps maintain a strong and steady flow of water, regardless of your local water supply conditions, and a light sensor saves energy by monitoring ambient light and automatically putting the unit into sleep mode whenever the room becomes dark.  For families with young children, a childlock helps prevent accidental scalding from the push-button hot water dispenser.

Whether you’re looking for something that offers chilled water only, boiling water only, or both, there’s a Zip product available to suit your home or workplace.  Appliances Online stocks a variety of these models, so it’s never been easier to get instant access to water at the temperature you want.
