Posted by Lorraine on 19th Nov 2023

If you're thinking about buying a boiling water tap but have been put off by the high prices, read on. We share a range of instant hot water taps with prices starting under £350!

What are the advantages of a boiling water tap?

  • Saves time, water & energy - Boiling water on demand means no waiting round for the kettle to boil plus you use only the water you need. No more over filled kettles!
  • Safe - All hot taps include safety features including insulated spouts and child proof locks to prevent boiling water being turned on accidentally. Unlike a kettle, there is no risk of knocking over a boiling water tap.
  • Space Saving - No need for a kettle so you can create more space on your work top.
  • Quick & Easy: Speeds up drink & food preparation

Quooker Taps feature within our Best Boiling Water Taps For 2023. Quooker taps are excellent quality. We also love the fact you have the option to choose between three tank sizes. Having these tank options means a Quooker tap is better equipped to deal with different scenarios without compromising on the tap design;

  • 3L - Suitable for most homes.
  • 7L - Ideal for larger families, offices.
  • Combi - Perfect for outdoor offices where only a cold water feed if available. Can generate hot (50-60ºC) and boiling water (100ºC). Eliminates need to pipe hot water all the way from the main boiler to your kitchen sink.

The desire to install a boiling water tap in home kitchen projects and workplaces has been on the rise. We've picked a selection of pull out hot taps, 4in1 hot taps, 3in1 hot taps and boiling water only hot taps which fall within high, mid and low price ranges.

The collection of boiling water taps picked are suitable for all budgets and will look great in both modern and traditional kitchen designs.

Pull Out Hot Taps:

Pull Out Hot Taps offer hot, cold and boiling water from one spout with the added convenience of a pull out hose. They offer the ultimate convenience! Here are our top picks.

  1. Quooker Flex - Approx £1235 (with cold water filter)
  2. iivela BECCO PO - £599

Quooker Flex

In 2017 Quooker launched the first ever boiling water tap with a pull out hose; The Quooker Flex.

The Flex is an outstanding hot tap. It's beautifully designed and very practical supplying hot, cold and 100ºC boiling water from one spout. You can add a cold water filter (Costs around £235*) and, with the addition of the Quooker Cube Chiller Unit it can even offer chilled sparkling water! The extra options and the fact it has a pull out hose make this the most prestigious tap on offer. However, it's only available in a swan spout design.

The Quooker Flex has lots of safety features to ensure there is no risk of burning or scalding. A boiling water safety stop cuts off the boiling water immediately when hose is pulled out. Boiling water cannot be activated when the hose is in use.

Quooker Flex - Practical, stylish and hard to beat!

iivela BECCO PO Boiling Water Tap

The iivela BECCO PO Hot Tap is a stylish hot tap with a pull out hose and a low price tag! It delivers hot, cold, 98ºC boiling water and filtered cold water.

It may be low price but this doesn't compromise on style or quality. It features a child-safe spring lock for extra safety while a built-in aerator ensures a controlled flow of water.

Complete with a double filter, limescale, bacteria and unwanted particles are filtered out of the water so you can enjoy great tasting water.

  3. iivela Arvo - £589.99

1. Quooker Fusion

We chose the Quooker Fusion as our high budget choice because it's a beautifully styled tap, available in two designs with lots of colour options making it suitable for so many kitchen colour schemes. You do, however have to pay extra for the cold filtered water upgrade.

Once installed, it's clear to see the quality of the engineering. The Quooker Fusion is easy to control. A simple push and turn of the central, textured handle operates filtered and boiling water.

The Quooker Fusion, like the Flex, can be plumbed into the Quooker Cube to enjoy chilled filtered and sparkling water too.

2. Franke Omni Contemporary Hot Tap

Our mid budget choice is the Franke Omni Contemporary. Priced just a little lower than the Fusion, the Omni Tap has a slightly larger tank size than most hot water taps available. The decent sized 4L tank can make around 8 mugs of water at a time, that's lot's of freshly made cuppas in one go!

The Omni is simple to use thanks to the dual lever design and features a childproof lever. One supplies hot and cold water while the other can be pushed forward for filtered water and back for boiling.

The Franke Omni Contemporary - Larger tank size, great all round hot tap.

3. iivela Arvo Hot Tap

The iivela Arvo Hot Tap is a brilliant low budget 4-in-1 kettle tap. Close to half the price of the Fusion and Franke hot taps, this iivela tap has lots to offer.

Complete with a touch control, digital tank it's possible to adjust the temperature of the boiling water being dispensed between 80ºC and 98ºC. It does have a smaller tank but it only takes around 8 minutes to re-boil. The tank also has an activated carbon filter which works to remove limescale from the tank to prolong the lifespan of the tap and tank.

We love all the colour choices which include chrome, brushed chrome, black and copper too!
