FAQs
What is the maximum temperature of the boiling water?
The tap delivers filtered near-boiling water up to 98°C.
How do I activate the child-safe lock?
The child-safe feature is a spring lock mechanism on the boiling water handle. Typically, you need to push down and then operate the handle.
How often should I replace the filter?
Filter replacement frequency depends on usage and water hardness, but typically it is recommended every 6 months or as indicated in the user manual.
Can I install this tap myself?
While some DIY installation is possible, we recommend professional installation by a qualified plumber to ensure proper and safe setup, especially for the boiling water tank and electrical connections.
Does the boiling water tank require constant power?
Yes, the boiling water tank requires a constant power supply to maintain the water temperature.
What is the warranty period for the tap?
Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's website for specific warranty details, as this can vary.
Will the brushed brass finish tarnish over time?
Brushed brass finishes are designed for durability, but like all finishes, they benefit from regular cleaning and care to maintain their appearance.
Troubleshooting
No boiling water is dispensed
Ensure the boiling tank is powered on and has reached temperature. Check that the boiling water handle is fully engaged. Verify the filter is correctly installed and not clogged. Check water supply to the tank.
Leaking from the spout or base
Turn off the water supply. Check all connections for tightness. Inspect seals and O-rings for damage and replace if necessary. If leaks persist, contact a qualified plumber.
Water flow is slow or intermittent
Check the water supply valves are fully open. Clean or replace the water filter, as a clogged filter is a common cause of reduced flow. Inspect the aerator for blockages.
Tap is noisy during operation
Ensure the water pressure is within the recommended range. Check for any loose parts or obstructions within the system. Air trapped in the system can sometimes cause noise; flushing the system may help.
Boiling water handle is stiff or difficult to operate
Ensure the child-safe spring lock is disengaged correctly. Check for any debris around the handle mechanism. If stiffness persists, lubrication may be required; consult the user manual.
