Product Information

Full details

The LavaTap 4 in 1 Boiling Water Tap in Gold is designed for modern kitchens seeking efficiency and space-saving solutions. It offers hot, cold, filtered, and near-boiling water from a single, elegant swan neck spout, reducing clutter from kettles. A key benefit is its independent boiling water control via a dedicated handle. However, it's crucial to note that this is a 'tap only' model and requires a compatible under-sink tank and filter system to function; it will not provide boiling water as a standalone unit.

FAQs

What is included with this product?

This is a 'tap only' model. It includes the LavaTap 4 in 1 boiling water tap in gold. It does NOT include the under-sink tank or filter system, which must be purchased separately or already be installed.

Can I use this tap without a boiling water tank?

No, this tap is designed to be part of a complete boiling water system. The boiling water function will not work if it is not connected to a compatible LavaTap under-sink tank and filter system.

How long does the boiling water take to dispense?

The system operates on a non-pressurised open vent principle. There is a short, normal delay before boiling water flow begins to ensure safe operation.

What is the warranty period for this tap?

Please refer to the product documentation or contact LavaTap customer support for specific warranty details related to this model.

What is the best water pressure for this tap?

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

How do I clean the gold finish?

Clean the gold finish gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.

Troubleshooting

No boiling water dispensing

Ensure the under-sink tank is powered on and has reached temperature. Check that the filter is correctly installed and not blocked. Verify all connections to the tank and tap are secure.

Slow or reduced boiling water flow

The non-pressurised system may have a slight delay. Check the water filter for blockages and replace if necessary. Ensure the tank is operating within the recommended pressure range (1-5 bar).

Leaking from the tap base

This typically indicates an issue with the seals or connections to the under-sink system. Re-check all plumbing connections and ensure the tap is securely seated on the sink. Professional installation is recommended.

Tap handle is stiff or difficult to operate

The internal mechanism may require lubrication or the valve could be obstructed. Consult the system manual or contact customer support. Do not force the handle.

Hot or cold water flow is poor

Check your main household water supply pressure. Ensure the isolation valves under the sink are fully open. The tap's internal valves or aerator may need cleaning.
