Zip Water HydroTap Chilled Water Taps

Instant is the part that's easy to miss about chilled water from a HydroTap. Any fridge gets water cold eventually; this tap gets there before you've even picked up the glass, because filtering and cooling happen continuously under the counter rather than in bursts through the day.

A smaller footprint when it's chilled alone

Skip boiling and sparkling and the under-counter unit shrinks with it, since there's no reservoir or cylinder sharing the cupboard, which suits a kitchen that only ever wanted cold water on tap rather than the full combination. Most models also let you nudge the temperature itself, so a household chasing fridge-cold gets it and one that prefers merely cool water isn't left with ice in every glass. There's no scald risk either, worth knowing if young hands reach the handle unsupervised.

Where to compare the wider range

Chilled water taps covers every chilled tap the store stocks, Zip included, and is the better read for weighing chilled-only against a combined system or setting running costs against each other across brands. Zip Water holds the rest of the HydroTap line, boiling and sparkling both, if instant cold turns out to be only part of the brief.

Frequently Asked Questions

What temperature does a Zip HydroTap deliver chilled water at?

Cold enough to drink without needing ice, on par with water that's had a proper stretch in the fridge rather than merely lost its warmth from the tap. Most models let you nudge that setting up or down slightly, so a household chasing fridge-cold gets it, and one that prefers water simply cool isn't stuck at one fixed point.

Can chilled be added to a boiling-only HydroTap later?

No, that's a decision made at the point of choosing the tap, not afterwards. A chiller shares the cupboard with the filtration unit, and fitting one alongside an existing boiling-only installation isn't something the range supports as an add-on. If chilled might matter down the line, choose a combined model from the outset instead.

Does a chilled HydroTap need the same filter maintenance as a boiling one?

Yes, every HydroTap filters mains water the same way before anything else happens to it, so a chilled model tracks usage and flags a replacement on the same basis a boiling one would. Zip Water filters and CO2 stocks the cartridge that matches your unit once a change comes due.

Is a chilled-only HydroTap simpler to fit than a multi-function one?

Generally, yes. Without a boiling reservoir or a CO2 cylinder to house, the under-counter unit for a chilled-only model is smaller, which can suit a kitchen with a shallower or narrower cupboard than a combined system would need. It's one genuine advantage of keeping the tap to a single function.
