The Benefits of Instant Hot Water Taps

Instant Taps are growing in popularity and there’s been an increase in demand particularly in office breakout areas and at hotels and conferencing venues where sleek and stylish water-point alternatives are preferred. If you’re in the process of refurbishing or considering making any changes to your current refreshment area, consider the benefits and convenience of these aesthetically pleasing taps.

Sleek & Compact

Beautifully designed, Instant Taps provide a sleek and stylish alternative to traditional water dispensers and boilers. Perfect for boardrooms, conferencing and refreshment stations, their versatility in terms of being able to dispense boiling, ambient and chilled water all from one tap also means they take up far less space than their traditional counterparts. Sunk into the countertop with the water boiler and/or chilling unit discreetly hidden underneath the worktop, they are compact and space-saving, allowing seamless integration into your office kitchen or breakout area.

Energy efficiency

Though this may come as a surprise, Expert Energy have actually estimated that an instant boiling tap can use up to 50% less energy that traditional kettles.

67% of people overfill their kettle with every use which leads to an astronomical 3500 tonnes of waste CO2 everyday. On the other hand, an instant boiling tap will only dispense what is required, meaning over a longer period of time the use of a boiling tap will actually cut down on wasted energy and water – making them a clear environmentally conscious choice.

Cost Savings

The on-demand nature of the taps means less energy is needed to heat water, leading to lower energy bills. Instant boiling water taps can also save time, as they eliminate the need to wait for a kettle to boil. This is particularly beneficial for busy households or communal kitchens, as it can free up time for other tasks.

Ease of Living

Instant hot water can be especially useful for preparing hot drinks, cooking and cleaning. This eliminates the need to wait for a kettle to boil, and can make meal preparation and clean-up much more efficient. They can also be especially beneficial for those with mobility issues, as they eliminate the need to lift and pour from a kettle, meaning a more accessible space.

Environmental Impact

Instant boiling hot water taps can be a more sustainable choice than traditional kettle boiling methods. Traditional kettles require heating a full kettle of water, even if only a small amount is needed. This can lead to a significant amount of energy waste.

Instant boiling water taps provide hot water on demand, reducing the amount of energy needed to heat water. This can lead to a significant reduction in energy consumption, and in turn, a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Equally, you will only use what you need, meaning less water waste.
