The Quooker 2-2+XRVS boiling hot water tap with the COMBI Plus tank is a versatile and convenient addition to any kitchen. With its sleek stainless steel design, the tap offers not only boiling water at 100°C but also hot and cold water, all from a single unit. The tap's dual-insulated spout ensures it remains cool to the touch, providing extra safety, while the child-proof double push-and-turn activation prevents accidental boiling water release, making it a safe choice for family homes.
The COMBI Plus tank holds up to 7 litres of boiling water, allowing for instant access without waiting for a kettle to boil. This makes everyday tasks like preparing hot drinks, cooking, or sterilising kitchen equipment much quicker and easier. The energy-saving modes available with this tap help to reduce power consumption when the tap is on standby, using just 10 watts, costing approximately 3p per day to run in this state.
The Flex model is equipped with a pull-out hose, adding extra functionality for tasks like rinsing vegetables or cleaning around the sink. It also features an aerated spray for safety, ensuring the water flow is gentle and reducing the risk of splashes when dispensing boiling water. The tap has a spout rotation of 270°, offering flexibility in use, and the side lever allows for easy control of hot and cold water mixing.
Although the tap provides unfiltered hot and cold water, it can be enhanced with the optional CUBE accessory, which allows the system to also deliver chilled, filtered, and sparkling water from the same tap. This makes the Quooker tap a 4-in-1 solution, combining all essential kitchen water needs into one compact and stylish unit. Other accessories, such as the cold water filter, mounting bracket, and scale control system, are also available to enhance the tap's performance and longevity, especially in hard water areas where limescale can be a concern. The scale control system is recommended to prevent limescale build-up, which isn’t covered under the Quooker warranty if left unmanaged.
The tap is easy to install but requires a 13A connection and a domestic hot water pipe connection. It operates best at a recommended water pressure of 2-6 bar. The tank is typically installed under the sink for convenient access and space efficiency.
Overall, the Quooker 2-2+XRVS is a highly functional and energy-efficient solution for any kitchen, providing instant boiling, hot, and cold water, with the flexibility to upgrade to chilled and sparkling water. With safety features, sleek design, and a range of optional accessories, it is an ideal choice for homeowners looking for a reliable and stylish water solution.
