It really does make sense to have instant hot water taps in your kitchen. These taps dispense boiling hot water almost instantly, which means you don’t have to wait for the water to heat for cooking or for the kettle to boil. These hot water taps run on electricity and are perfectly safe for use, even when you have small children in the house.
Why do you need Instant Hot Water Taps?
These taps can be used for any purpose that requires heating of water. They are used to prepare tea or coffee, to sterilize dummies, for cooking, cleaning and food preparation, such as washing fruits and vegetables with hot water before using them. With these taps, you will always have boiling water when you need it, so you don’t have to waste time and energy on heating or reheating water again and again. This saves you a lot of money on your utility bills as well.
How Do Boiling Water Taps Work?
Instant boiling water taps consist of small electric hot water tanks that hold the hot water ready for use. It switches on immediately as soon as you turn on the instant hot water tap located near the sink. Water is then supplied to the tank through a tiny water pipe that runs from the sink’s cold water feed line. This goes into the base of the tank, where it is heated by electricity. The heating of the water causes it to expand and move into the holding tank where it is kept in a heated state. So, when you turn the tap on, the cold water flows into the bottom and the hot water flows to the top.
Most instant hot water taps have dispensers that have a capacity of 2.5 – 3 litres. A 750-watt power is required to heat the tank. This is enough to deliver up to sixty cups of hot water in no more than an hour’s time. Instant boiling water taps deliver the water at a much higher temperature than a regular hot water tap.
They come with thermostats that are self setting to achieve the temperature that is most suitable for your purposes.
