Your questions answered

Every day, we receive questions from people who want to know more about our boiling water taps, so, we have answered some of your most frequently asked questions.

"Is the Quooker boiling water tap safe?"

Safety is always a prime consideration and where boiling water is concerned it is even more important. Quooker helps cut down on kitchen accidents. Every year, UK hospitals treat many thousands of adults and children for serious injuries relating to kettles (source: ROSPA). Terrible burns and scalds are caused by the fact that a kettle itself is a hot object, it contains boiling water and it can so easily be tipped or overturned and sometimes even the outside of a kettle is too warm too touch. 

By contrast, the Quooker is ultra-safe with its static tap installation, built- in childproof safety mechanism (which requires an adult hand to push and turn it on) and aerated delivery of water meaning delivery in a fine spray as opposed to direct jet. These features have resulted in an unblemished safety record despite there being over 250,000 units in operation in Europe.

"Is a Quooker something I can add to my existing kitchen or can I only have one with a new kitchen?"

A Quooker can be easily added to an existing kitchen and it only takes about 60 minutes to install and comes complete with all that is required, even the drill bit for connection at the waste. Quooker taps are available in four different styles and six different finishes so
you will always be able to match it with your kitchen tap.

"We have a granite work surface though! Can we still have a Quooker fitted?"

Not a problem and if you book your installation with a Quooker approved installer they all have special drills that allow them to cut the tap hole in any solid surface other than glass!

"The Quooker will not fit under the sink, what can I do?"

You can site the Quooker tank up to 1500 mm away from the delivery tap and extension hoses are available for this purpose.
