ARE BOILING WATER TAPS SAFE?

Quooker taps dispense boiling water as an aerated FLow rather than a solid jet, meaning water feels hot but not scalding to touch

Boiling water taps have grown rapidly in popularity over the past ten years. Something that was originally viewed by many as an unnecessary luxury item has now become a household essential for millions across the globe.

Concerns about safety was once a signifi cant factor in dissuading people to invest in a boiling water tap, and to this day, one of the most frequently asked questions when renovating a kitchen is ‘is boiling water straight from the tap safe?’. With constant innovation, boiling water taps on the market today are completely safe to use. With userfriendly, in-built safety mechanisms, such as Quooker’s patented double push and twist, that make it virtually impossible to turn on boiling water by accident, they are ideal for every household.

Moreover, boiling water taps are static, immovable objects which cannot accidentally be spilled or tipped over. The rotatable spouts also allow users to aim precisely, minimising the risk of spills. On the other hand, kettles and pans of water on the hob can easily tip over.

Last but not least, Quooker taps dispense boiling water as an aerated fl ow rather than a solid jet, meaning water feels hot but not scalding to touch, should any accidental contact occur. The heavily insulated casing prevents heat from escaping and ensures the tap is not hot to touch when in use, unlike a kettle, which presents a far higher burn risk.
