Stylish filtered boiling, chilled and sparkling water taps from Australia’s world famous brand. Premium filters ensure superior water quality and come in a variety of finishes.
During a boil water advisory, use bottled water or boiled water for drinking, brushing teeth, washing dishes and making baby formula. Also, run all cold water taps in your home for a few minutes.
Boiling Water
The simplest way to purify water is by boiling it, but this method requires constant use, takes time and can be expensive. An instant boiling and chilled water tap gives you all the benefits of a kettle but without the waste and expense.
During a boil water advisory, health inspectors recommend that all water used for drinking, brushing teeth, making ice, washing dishes and preparing baby formula be boiled for three minutes and cooled before using. It’s also a good idea to run cold water faucets in the kitchen and bathroom to flush out any discoloured water that may contain lead.
With a range of stunning designs and finishes, Billi’s patented Zip PowerPulse technology enables it to maintain perfect boiling water temperature with a small burst of energy, reducing electricity costs. Plus, the clever energy saving stand-by mode and 0.2 micron water filtration help reduce utility costs even more.
Whether you’re a busy family or large workplace, a Billi boiling and chilled water tap is the perfect choice to reduce plastic bottle waste while delivering on demand filtered water and boosting productivity. The all-in-one under bench appliances offer a choice of models dispensing 15-50 litres of chilled and boiling water per hour. Energy efficiency is at the core of the design, with a TaoLink master unit that recovers waste heat energy from the cooling process and uses it to preheat boiling water.
Chilled Water
Powered by an under bench unit concealed away from view these filtered boiling and chilled water taps can be installed in a range of kitchen styles, modern or traditional. With a focus on convenience, they’re a great choice for busy families or workplaces.
Having a filtered boiling and chilled water system in the kitchen means no more buying bottled water. Not only is this expensive but the environmental impact of transporting, storing and disposing of countless plastic bottles is enormous.
With a single tap you can have instant filtered boiling and cold water for tea, coffee, hot chocolate, cooking and cleaning. The spouts are ergonomically designed for easy operation with boiling water safety mode and a button lock to prevent accidental dispensing. Both Billi and Quooker systems have warning lights that alert you when the filter needs changing, the temperature of the water is incorrect or there is a system fault.
Drinking chilled water is one of the best ways to keep hydrated in summer, it’s also been shown that having chilled water in the fridge helps you lose weight by encouraging you to fill up on water before reaching for sugary drinks. This is because it takes your body more effort to maintain the temperature of cool water, burning more calories in the process. With a Zip HydroTap system you can eliminate the need for single use plastic water bottles too. Patented Zip PowerPulse technology maintains perfect boiling water temperatures by delivering small energy bursts rather than overheating and cooling.
Filtered Water
Boiling water is one of the most common and simplest methods of disinfecting tap water. However, boiling takes time and consumes energy. Water filters are a more convenient and environmentally friendly way to purify drinking water by eliminating pathogens, chemicals, toxins and improving the taste of tap water. There are a range of different water filters available, with the type you choose depending on your specific needs and budget.
An all-in-one water system from BLANCO is the perfect kitchen solution to provide a constant supply of filtered boiling, chilled and sparkling water. It replaces multiple taps and dispenses a combined total of up to 250 cups per hour of boiling, chilled and filtered water for your business. Plus, no need for bottled water – simply use the tap to serve carbonated or still filtered water.
During a boil water advisory, public health officials recommend using bottled water or to boil tap water before drinking. Boiled water must be brought to a full rolling boil for one minute (at elevations above 6,500 feet, boil for three minutes). It is also recommended that people brush teeth with bottled or boiled water and cook with bottled or boiled water. You should also use bottled or boiled water to prepare powdered or concentrated baby formula and to wash dishes, clothing, food preparation surfaces and utensils.
Energy Savings
For many households, boiling water is an affordable and practical solution to purify drinking water. Unlike other more expensive systems, boiling only requires access to a source of heat and can quickly kill bacteria in drinking water.
The research team found that bacterial counts in household water were significantly lower when the water was boiled for at least three minutes compared to unboiled water. This was particularly the case in households that boiled their drinking water in a metal pot versus those using plastic or wood containers. Households typically boiled their water indoors over a plancha, a woodstove with three or six circular plates that can be removed to allow the pot to come in direct contact with the heat source. The majority of households used wood as their primary fuel source to boil their drinking water and most collected the wood from their own forest, purchased it in a store or had it delivered at home.
Using a Zip HydroTap eliminates the need to purchase, store and ultimately dispose of single use plastic bottles saving you time, effort and money. Patented Zip PowerPulse technology maintains perfect boiling water temperature efficiently, avoiding the overheating and cooling that wastes energy and results in inconsistent boiling temperatures. instant boiling water and chilled water tap
