Why 98 & Not 100 degrees?
Make sure the water temperature is right
Leaving your boiled kettle to cool down for a few minutes gives you the perfect required temperature for your tea.“Our top tip is that you should never pour boiling water over a tea bag or loose tea. The reason for this is because the boiling water will burn the tea, it scalds it and therefore, the tea doesn’t release all of its maximum flavours. Tea is a very delicate plant and needs to be cared for to receive the full benefits. So once your water has rested for about 2-3 minutes it’s ready to be poured onto your tea.The myth "When making a cup of tea many people think you have to have the water at 100 degrees. Here is what the UK Tea & Infusion Association says on its website:The water temperature for tea should be between 90 – 98 degrees "

Whats the difference between a 3 in 1 and 4 in 1 tap?
A 3-in-1 hot tap provides - standard hot/cold mixed water, and filtered 98 degree hot water.
A 4-in-1 hot tap provides - standard hot/cold mixed water, filtered 98 degree hot water, and filtered cold water.
So to put in plainly - a 4-in-1 tap gives you filtered cold water as an extra feature. A 3-in-1 tap only gives you filtered near boiling water. Both give standard mixed water.
Both products require a filter change every 4 or 6 months - depending on how hard the water is in your area. Our specially developed filters stop the build up of limescale in your tank (keeping them working efficiently) and they are fully recyclable too.
And with our filters removing 99% of water bound contaminations ‘including Chlorine’, all you taste in your drink is what YOU decide to drink! : Coffee, Tea and refreshing pure plain water like never before - and all directly from your INTU filtered hot tap!
What are the pros and cons of a boiling water tap
Pros
Hot water taps provide instant hot water. No need to wait for a kettle to heat up.
Some hot water taps come with a flexi-hose to make cleaning easier.
Purchasing a hot water tap with a safety lock keeps your family safe from accidents.
If you have mobility issues, an instant hot water tap eliminates the need to lift and pour.
Filtered hot water taps remove bad chemicals, taste and odour in the water.
Cons
The cost of the appliance is dearer than a standard kettle.
Some cupboard space will be lost due to the hot water tank.
Do boiling water taps save you money?
Although the cost of the appliance, and the installation (if you’ve paid for a professional fitter) can be fairly costly, your monthly energy bills should reduce.
If you install a 4-in-1 hot tap you remove the need to purchase filtered bottle water - saving you money and also reducing your plastic usage/waste.
How do boiling water taps work?
Boiling water taps are designed to revolutionise your kitchen experience.
They are essentially a heavily insulated tank of water (sits under your sink) which is connected to a specially developed kitchen tap.
Most taps have your standard hot/cold mixed water from the right handle - with the instant hot water isolated on the left handle with a safety button.
The water is brought to near boiling point within the well insulated tank and held there for a continuous supply of hot water.
Are boiling water taps dangerous?
Boiling water taps are safer than you may initially think, and are less dangerous than a kettle.
Kettles hold boiling water and require them to be picked up, angled to pour and can be heavy when full. The convenience of a boiling water tap is that there is no need to pick up or move heavy kettles and your mug or pan can sit directly under your tap. So there is no need to handle any hot water.
Our INTU hot water taps have reduced pressure which prevents the hot water from splashing or spitting when in use. Another safety feature is our safety lock to stop small children from having an accident in the kitchen. This gives you added peace of mind while in your home.
Are your boiling water taps compatible with a low pressure system?
All our hot water taps are compatible with a low-pressure system.
Are boiling water taps economical?
Yes, our hot water taps are economical and energy-efficient ('A' Rated Efficiency) when compared to using a standard kettle - saving you energy, water and money.
So much water and energy is wasted by using a kettle daily especially if you pour out old pre-boiled water to re-fill the kettle before boiling again. A full kettle uses a lot of energy to heat up while a hot water tap costs a lot less and provides you with the amount of hot water required instantly.
Does the boiling water tap come with a warranty?
NTU hot water taps offer the highest quality at affordable prices - allowing you to have a bit of luxury in your kitchen and no clutter.
All our taps come with a free 2 year warranty. Register your product with us online to activate the warranty. Replacing your filter at least every 6 months keeps your warranty active and safe.
