Systems are available in multiple configurations to suit project requirements, including:

  • Filtered boiling, chilled, ambient, and sparkling drinking water (individually or in combination)
  • Options to include unfiltered hot and cold water (i.e. for rinsing and washing up)
  • All-in-one or separate mixer tap configurations
  • Installation over a sink or on a countertop using a font

* Independent testing prepared by a leading Australian University showed the HydroTap to be 23% more energy efficient when used in a typical office environment over 9 hours.

** Air cooled refrigeration systems use the air in the environment to remove heat that has been generated as part of the refrigeration process to create chilled water. Water cooled refrigeration systems use water to remove that heat, with independent University testing showing that water cooled refrigeration systems can dispense more than 30 litres of water per day to the drain.
