Product Information

Full details

The LavaTap 4 in 1 Boiling Water Tap in Black is for kitchen renovators or those looking to upgrade their sink setup. Its key benefit is providing instant hot, cold, filtered, and near-boiling water from a single, stylish swan neck tap, reducing clutter and saving time. A caveat is that it requires a compatible under-sink tank and filter system to function and operates on a non-pressurised system, meaning a slight delay for boiling water is normal. This tap offers convenience by consolidating multiple water functions, eliminating the need for separate kettles or water filters.

FAQs

What is a 4-in-1 boiling water tap?

A 4-in-1 boiling water tap dispenses hot, cold, filtered, and near-boiling water from a single tap, offering convenience and saving counter space.

Does this tap include the tank and filter?

No, this is a tap-only model. You will need to purchase a compatible under-sink boiling water tank and filter system separately.

Why is there a delay when dispensing boiling water?

This tap is designed for a non-pressurised open vent system, which includes a short, safe delay before boiling water is dispensed. This ensures controlled flow.

What water pressure is required?

The tap is designed to work within a pressure range of 1 bar to 5 bar. Best performance is achieved under balanced supply conditions.

How do I clean the black finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that can scratch the finish.

Can I install this myself?

While some DIYers may attempt installation, it is strongly recommended that this tap be installed by a qualified plumber or technician to ensure correct setup and safe operation.

What is the warranty period?

Warranty information typically varies. Please refer to the product's warranty documentation provided by the manufacturer for specific details.

Troubleshooting

No boiling water dispensing

Ensure the under-sink tank is powered on and has reached temperature. Check that the dedicated boiling water handle is fully engaged and that the system is correctly connected and primed.

Slow flow rate

Check for blockages in the filter or the tap spout. Verify that the water pressure is within the recommended 1-5 bar range. Ensure the non-pressurised system has not been obstructed.

Tap is leaking

Check all connections to the under-sink system and ensure they are securely tightened. Inspect any seals or O-rings for damage and replace if necessary. Professional installation is advised if leaks persist.

Water is not hot enough

Confirm the temperature setting on the under-sink tank. Allow sufficient time for the tank to reheat after heavy use. Ensure the tank and filter are functioning correctly as per their respective manuals.
