Zip Water HydroTap Kitchen Taps for Work

A commercial boiling water tap has one job, keeping up with everyone who reaches for it. This is the Zip HydroTap range built and specified to do exactly that: sized, finished and serviced for an office, a hospital ward or a busy canteen rather than a household kitchen, and it's genuinely separate stock from the home range, not the same tap wearing a different label. Whether the brief is boiling water alone or a full combination with chilled and sparkling, every model here answers to it.

What a workplace HydroTap has to cope with

A staff kitchen tap gets used by people who never chose it and were never trained on it, all day long, without anyone nursing it between cups. The platform behind it is built to serve continuously rather than in short household bursts, and the under-counter unit is sized to keep pace with footfall rather than one family's habits. That duty cycle is the real difference between this range and the home range: a home HydroTap is chosen for finish and fit, while a workplace one earns its place by how many people it can serve through a working day without falling behind.

Who the work range suits

This range is for whoever specifies water for a building rather than a single kitchen: an office manager weighing up the kettle queue, a facilities team signing off a staff kitchen refit, a contractor working from a specification that names WRAS approval outright. For an installation that needs sign-off against a spec, the WRAS approved models are the place to start rather than the wider range. If the brief is really a small team making a handful of hot drinks a day, that's lighter use than this range is built for, and the home range does that job for less outlay and less to think about.

Living with a workplace HydroTap

Servicing here belongs to a facilities team, not a household, and that's worth settling before the tap sees its first full week of use rather than after something goes wrong with nobody owning the fix. Touch-free operation and accessible controls are worth asking about too, since a fixture used by dozens of people through the day benefits from hands-free use in a way a single household tap rarely needs to. Filters remain a running cost here just as they are anywhere else Zip's engineering shows up, and Zip filters and cartridges covers what that looks like once the tap's installed. The full case for Zip's engineering, and where this range sits inside it, is on the Zip Water page.
