A Quooker tap dispenses 100°C boiling water, cool sparkling water and filtered water whenever you need it. What actually happens above and below the worktop.

High-vacuum insulation

The Quooker system consists of a small tank in the kitchen cupboard that is linked to the boiling water tap on the worktop. The tank acts like a vacuum flask connected to the water mains. The air in the insulated wall is so thin that the heat is unable to escape. It therefore takes very little energy (just 10 watts) to keep the water in the tank at 110°C. The water only starts to boil when the tap is turned on and the temperature of the outflowing water drops to 100°C. While the water is flowing out of the tap, fresh water immediately flows into the tank.

Different tanks

Quooker has developed a range of different tanks: the PRO3 for instant boiling water and the COMBI for instant boiling and hot water from a cold feed only. They all have the patented high-vacuum insulation, which keeps the water at the right temperature in an energy-efficient manner. The standby power consumption is as little as three pence a day.

Only boiling water or hot water too?

If you only need boiling water, then the PRO3 (3 litres) is sufficient. But if you have a boiler that is more than six metres from your tap, the COMBI tank is a good choice for your kitchen. This produces boiling water (100°C), but also hot water (40 - 60°C), enabling you to save water and energy. You will find more information about the different tanks and the energy and water consumption of a Quooker later in this brochure.

This is how the Quooker CUBE works

We have also developed a system for cool filtered and sparkling water: the Quooker CUBE. This is an extra tank that is installed beside the boiling water tank in your kitchen cabinet. The CUBE contains a Hollow Fibre filter that purifies the water. A CO2 cylinder attached to the tank gives you 60 litres of chilled sparkling water.
