See how useful it is to have true boiling water on tap whenever you need it...
A true revolution ...
Every now and then a 'vital' new kitchen appliance comes along which changes
the face of cooking. Trend-setters buy it, their friends see it and immediately want one, kitchen designers and chefs recommend it, newspapers and magazines review it and eventually it becomes a 'must have' in every kitchen….
The Quooker® boiling water tap is one of those rare 'must haves'. This simple, ultra-safe idea immediately renders kettles out of date and takes kitchens a giant leap forward. Although it's new to the UK, over 100,000 kitchens in Europe already depend on their Quookers® for instant boiling water.
And the applications are endless. Quooker® users still come up with new ones. The most obvious one is making a cup of tea and the latest addition to the list is poaching fish. Of course you can also fill up a pasta pan, blanch vegetables, heat up plates and serving platters, make coffee, prepare baby formula, peel tomatoes, remove candle wax and much more. All done in a moment and with boiling water of 100ºC! After all, only truly boiling water is good enough for the perfect cup of English tea.

Very occasionally exceptional products come along that become the latest "must haves". This is one such product. Available in four designs, Basic, Classic, Design and Modern; this tap is the only one on the market to consistently deliver true fresh, filtered boiling water.
Our tap collection includes four models: Basic, Classic, Design and Modern; and six finishes: chrome, satin chrome, stainless steel effect, brushed chrome, gold-plated brass and bronze. This allows you to find a matching Quooker® tap for every kitchen and mixing tap.
All Quooker® taps have a childproof push-and-turn handle. They are also height-adjustable and insulated. The adjustable height comes in handy, for instance, when you want to fill a tall pan or thermos. In this case you adjust the tap to the highest position. The lowest position, on the other hand, is (for example) useful when you want to fill up a small pan with water in your sink. Thanks to the insulated spout, you can do one shortly after the other: just take hold of the spout and slide it up and down.
Basic
The Quooker® Basic has a handle with recess and spout with an angle of 100º.
Classic
The Quooker® Classic has a classic-style handle and arched spout..
Design
The Quooker® Design has a handle with pin and arched spout.
Modern
The Quooker® Modern has a handle with pin and spout with an angle of 90º.
Safety
The Quooker® has a push-and-turn mechanism to prevent unwanted operation. This ensures that children cannot be scalded by the boiling water.
Adjustable outflow
The outflow can swivel and be adjusted in height. This enables you to set it to a convenient height.
Descaling the aerator
It is advisable to remove limescale from the aerator regularly by removing it from the tap and placing it in vinegar. The intervals at which descaling is required depend on the water hardness. Regular descaling will ensure that the aerator does not block and spray water.
Indicator lamp
The indicator lamp on the tap indicates whether the tank is heating up. If the Quooker® is not used the indicator will light up several times an hour for short periods. It will also light up once you start the flow of boiling water. If the indicator flashes, the tank is not heating up. In that case you have to reset the unit by switching it off briefly with the power switch, and then switching it on again. If the indicator keeps flashing please contact the manufacturer.
Use of the Quooker®
When filling a cup, teapot, pan, etc. with boiling water you should keep it close to the aerator because some of the boiling water may spray around due to the steam.
