Truly 100°C boiling. easy to use. cost & energy efficient

QETTLE taps are truly, 100°C boiling. So, they’re not only great for instant cuppas but are ideal for staff grabbing snacks on the go such as noodles, porridge and soup. You and your team will only ever use the boiling water you need, you’ll be quids-in on utility bills and best of all, no one will ever lose half an hour to the tea round again: you’ll get up to 14 cups of boiling water instantly, in one go.

Freshly Filtered,
Chilled Drinking Water on Tap

Give your water cooler its P45 and fill your glass or water bottle straight from your workplace’s QETTLE. There’s a plentiful flow of chilled, great-tasting drinking water that is free from chlorine, chemicals and other, unpleasant contaminants. The QETTLE Chiller will provide up to 1.2 litres of refreshingly cool water at once.

Choose Rental or Purchase & Servicing

When it comes to getting your QETTLE in and taking care of bi-annual maintenance, we’ve got it covered. Our QETTLE Workplace packages include installation and ongoing routine servicing to ensure your QETTLE continues to keep up with demand. So, the only thing you and your team need to worry about is the next cuppa, or keeping your glass topped up. And with a QETTLE, your glass will always be half full.

A Greener Way to Work

Workplace waste is scary. Where vending machine and water coolers are available, a full time worker uses up to 500 ‘disposable’ cups a year. Then there’s the mostly unrecyclable paper cups brought in from coffee shops, and plastic water bottles, too. A QETTLE allows you and your team to reuse the same mugs, glasses and water bottles.

How it Works

Rent your workplace's QETTLE for a monthly, all-in fee. It's simple and surprisingly affordable. It costs from just £91 per month (+ VAT) to rent a QETTLE tap - and that's for a complete system, including a chiller. Alternatively, you can purchase your system outright and pay a monthly charge for the ongoing maintenance. Every 6 months, we'll service your QETTLE and our comprehensive support plan ensures we'll be here, ready to help if you experience any technical issues.

We'll carry out a full site survey, will install your QETTLE for a one-off charge and provide an online familiarisation session for you and your team.

Purchase and servicing plans are also available.

QETTLE workplace FAQS

How Rental & Servicing Works
  • How much does it cost to rent a QETTLE tap?
     
     

    Our rental packages start at £91 (+ VAT) per QETTLE, per month. This includes a complete QETTLE system, including a chiller, 6 monthly servicing, plus technical and engineer support.

     
  • What does rental include?
     
     

    You’ll receive a QETTLE Signature 2 in 1 or 4 in 1 tap, under sink filter system, a 7L boiler tank, a chiller unit and a commercial installation kit. The monthly rental fee also includes twice-yearly servicing and maintenance by a QETTLE Workplace engineer, which will include replacing your QETTLE’s filter cartridge and deep cleaning its boiler tank.


  • Do I have to rent the tap or can I purchase it?
     
     

    You’re very welcome to purchase your system if you’d prefer. Our monthly servicing agreement charge is then collected by direct debit, quarterly, or we can provide an annual invoice.

     
  • What about engineer callouts?
     
     

    Any required engineer visits will be covered by your rental or servicing agreement.

     
  • Who installs the tap?
     
     

    We do. A QETTLE Workplace engineer will install and commission your tap. We make a one-off installation charge for this service.

     
  • How long do I have to sign up for?
     
     

    Our rental agreement is for a minimum of three years. Our purchase and servicing agreement is for a minimum of one year.

     
  • Do I have to have my system serviced?
     
     

    Yes – QETTLEs are used far more in a workplace compared to when installed in a home. Thesystems work hard to keep up with demand throughout the day and therefore bi-annual servicing is essential to validate your 2-year warranty and ensure the system receives the TLC it requires.

     
  • What happens if my business decides to move premises?
     
     

    The rental and servicing of your QETTLE taps can be transferred to the new occupants of your site. Alternatively, if you would like to rent a QETTLE for your workplace, but are considering a move in the near future, let us know, and we will provide you with a tailored rental and servicing plan.

     
  • Facts, Functionality, Safety & Efficiency
  • How much boiling water will I get?
     
     
    Our 7L boiler tanks are our largest and will provide up to 14 cups of boiling water in one go. If the tank is completely depleted, it will take 15 minutes to replenish.
  • How many people can use a QETTLE system?
     
     
    QETTLE 7L systems are suitable for up to 20-25 people in an office or workplace, keeping in mind that 14 cups of boiling water can be provided in one go. So, as long as break times are spread across the day, up to 20-25 users shouldn’t be a problem.
  • How much does it cost to run a QETTLE?
     
     
    A QETTLE with a 7L boiler tank will costs just over 24p to run i.e. have on standby over 24 hours. You’ll also save on water – with a QETTLE you’ll only ever use the exact amount of boiling water you need. The biggest saving, however, is people time! A QETTLE allows you to wave goodbye to time spent waiting for the kettle to boil, making rounds of tea, or standing around the water cooler!
  • What about safety?
     
     
    QETTLE taps are very safe and feature two-stage safety. When the safety clip is in place, accessing boiling water is impossible. But even with the safety clip removed, an exact action is still required to activate the flow of boiling water. The handle must be pushed down and turned back simultaneously.
  • Can you supply fizzy/sparkling water?
     
     
    Unfortunately not at the moment, just refreshing chilled filtered water.
  • Can we have our QETTLE(s) in a coloured finish?
     
     
    Yes. We offer matte black, copper, brass and gunmetal. The monthly rental and servicing fee for coloured finishes is slightly higher.
Pre-Installation Preparation
  • Do I need a power socket below the sink?
     
     
    Yes – a 7L boiler requires a standard 13amp electric socket. You’ll need a second socket if you are also opting for a QETTLE Chiller.
  • Does the cupboard need to be ventilated?
     
     
    If you’re having a QETTLE Chiller, yes it does. This is very important. If practical, ventilation holes can be drilled into the rear of the cupboard wall (not suitable if the installation is above ground floor); alternatively, ventilation holes can be drilled into the kick space of the cupboard and a grille fitted.
  • What sort of water pressure does my workplace need?
     
     
    QETTLE taps require a minimum of 1.5 bar water pressure on hot and cold water flows. C commercial installation kit, comprising of a pressure reducing valve and a flood safe device is included as standard in all QETTLE Workplace packages. This protects against water pressure surges (common in commercial buildings) and will shut the system off if any water escape is detected.
  • What about space under the sink? How much will I need?
     
     
    QETTLE is surprisingly compact! The 7L boiler tank measures H400mm x W235mm x D295mm and the QETTLE Chiller measures H400mm x W182mm x D320mm. Both, plus the undersink filter system and floodsafe device will fit into a 600mm wide base cupboard. If necessary, the boiler tank or chiller can be installed in an immediately adjacent cupboard.
  • My workplace kitchen doesn’t have mains hot water to the sink. Is this a problem?
     
     
    No. We can supply your QETTLE with blender valve. As its name suggests, the valve blends a little of the QETTLE’s boiling water with a little mains cold water. The mixed flow is sent to the QETTLE’s ‘normal’ hot side, providing a flow of normal hot water for washing up.

    This is a great solution if your workplace relies on a wall-mounted hot water heater – but do remember you’ll be losing a small amount of your QETTLE’s boiling water to create the flow of normal hot water!
  • We want to replace our existing instant hot/boiling water taps with QETTLEs. But they don’t have sinks – just drip trays. Do I need a full size sink, or can I continue to use the drip tray?
     
     
    We do not advise installing QETTLE taps next to drip trays for safety reasons. A QETTLE delivers true, 100 degree boiling water, therefore the water flow can be a little lively and if there is not a sink, boiling water splashes are likely to land on the work surfaces or bounce off the drip tray.
  • Do you drill the hole for the tap?
     
     
    No, we don’t. Our QETTLE Workplace engineer will expect the tap hole and ventilation holes in the kitchen cupboard to have been drilled prior to installation. You can download our QETTLE installation guide here to check tap hole dimensions.
