Why Choose a Boiling Water Tap?

If you're tired of waiting for the kettle to boil, refilling it, or cluttering your worktops, a boiling water tap might be the upgrade your kitchen has been waiting for. These stylish, space-saving taps provide instant 100°C boiling water straight from the spout — ideal for hot drinks, cooking, and cleaning.

At Lucas Plumbing & Heating Ltd, we specialise in installing boiling water taps across homes in Berkshire, including Wokingham, Reading, Ascot, and surrounding areas.

What Is a Boiling Tap?

A boiling water tap is an all-in-one unit that delivers cold, hot, and boiling water from a single, sleek tap. It includes a compact under-sink boiler tank, which stores and maintains the water at or near boiling point — ready on demand.

Some systems offer:

• Filtered boiling water
• Chilled filtered water
• Sparkling water (in premium models)

Brands like Quooker, Grohe Red, InSinkErator, and Franke lead the market with energy-efficient, safe-to-use designs.

What’s Involved in Upgrading?

Upgrading your existing kitchen tap to a boiling tap requires a few key steps:

1. Choose the right system

• We’ll help you pick a tap that suits your needs, kitchen space, and water pressure.

1. Install the under-sink boiler tank

• Usually fits in a standard kitchen cupboard (requires electrical socket and cold feed).

1. Connect cold, hot and boiling supply lines

• We modify or upgrade your pipework if needed.

1. Fit the new tap

• Replace your old mixer tap with a modern 3-in-1 or 4-in-1 boiling tap.

1. Test and commission

• Full system test, safety demonstration, and usage guide.
