Zip introduces additional domestic hydrotap products for 2011

Making a cup of tea or coffee at home just got quicker thanks to the introduction of two new HydroTap models from Zip − the world leader in instant boiling water products.

Zip HydroTap is well known for combining functionality with iconic design and the new ‘All-In-One’ and ‘Miniboil’ ranges are designed to offer homeowners even more choice when it comes to convenience in the kitchen.

What’s more, incorporating a HydroTap into a current or new kitchen design scheme is now easier than ever with the introduction of three new tap finishes for 2011: Brushed chrome, black chrome and gold plated.*      

The HydroTap All-In-One - Complete convenience and style
The HydroTap All-In-One is ideal for smaller kitchens or where style conscious homeowners want a sleek and minimal look. The All-In-One cleverly combines the functionality of a traditional mixer tap with the convenience of HydroTap to give hot, warm or cold water as well as instant filtered boiling and chilled water. 

With great tasting chilled drinking water instantly available at the touch of a lever, the All-In-One HydroTap is ideal for making both hot and chilled drinks. It’s perfect too for speeding the preparation of pasta, vegetables and soups, the boiling of eggs or the sterilisation of babies’ bottles. The tap’s new long reach, 120 degree swivel spout can service up to 2 sinks, delivering hot, cold or mixed warm water for cleaning dishes, washing hands or rinsing vegetables.

An ultra-contemporary addition to any sink area, the All-In-One HydroTap allows users to control the flow of water easily and safely. Pressing the red lever delivers instant boiling filtered water, whilst the blue lever controls delivery of instant chilled filtered water. Pulling either lever forward delivers a pre-determined amount of boiling or chilled water − particularly handy when filling saucepans or carafes. Below, a separate mixer lever controls the flow of hot, cold or mixed warm water.

Like all HydroTaps, the All-In-One boasts a safety interlock system - requiring adult finger-thumb operation - to enable the flow of boiling water, making it completely safe for use in a family kitchen. It also offers a wide choice of energy saving features including low light and inactivity sleep modes and a programmable 24 hour 7 day timer designed to produce real energy savings whatever the lifestyle of the user.

What’s more, even during the boiling process, the HydroTap’s unique “Power Pulse” technology constantly monitors and adjusts the power necessary to achieve the set temperature.

The HydroTap Miniboil − Replaces kettles and the need for bottled water
New HydroTap Miniboil delivers instant filtered boiling water and great tasting filtered drinking water. For users this means no more waiting for kettles to boil and no more costly bottled water to buy, transport, or store.

HydroTap Miniboil is available in a choice of 2 tap designs, the Classic and the Elite and can be sited at a sink or mounted on the optional font.  Controls differ from the traditional HydroTap in that they feature touch pads rather than levers - with the all important child safety lock and cool touch tap body retained.

Both products feature an energy saving sleep mode which can be activated to automatically reduce the stored water temperature - and therefore energy usage - during periods of inactivity.

A special triple action filter system addresses taste, odour and particulate issues and there is an indicator to advise when a filter change is necessary. Zip HydroTap Miniboil gives users the peace of mind that the water their family is drinking is fresh and clean and that issues associated with bottled water − such as cost, transportation, storage and disposal are eliminated.

These new Zip HydroTap Miniboil products have been designed to offer maximum choice without compromising on space both above and below the kitchen worktop. The compact under-sink system is small enough to easily sit in one standard sized kitchen cupboard, meaning even small kitchens can have the latest ‘must have’ appliance without loosing valuable storage space.

The entire HydroTap range delivers real efficiency wherever installed as well as eliminating all need for bottled water.
