Our innovative Filtrata Boiling Water Tap is designed for convenience in the home, allowing you access to instant hot water, as well as hot and cold filtered water. To ensure that you enjoy the use of your boiling water tap for many years to come, you should follow the correct procedures with maintenance and care. Below we have listed multiple ways in which you can care for your hot water tap.
CLEANING THE FILTRATA
As with all of our brassware, care should be taken so that your boiling water tap remains clean and radiant for as long as possible. As the Filtrata is a high-quality product, it should be treated with care as surfaces will wear if they are not cleaned correctly. To do this, you should use a non-abrasive cleaner - such as a soft cloth - with warm water and washing up liquid, avoid using kitchen cleaners such as Cif if possible, as these will scratch the surface. These simple and easy steps will keep your Filtrata in immaculate condition.
CHANGING THE FILTRATA
Depending on the area you live in will depend on how often the filter needs changing. If you live in a hard water area, we recommend changing the filter every three months, medium water areas need changing every four months and soft water areas, every six months.
WHY SHOULD I CHANGE THE FILTER ON A BOILING WATER TAP?
Changing the filter means your water stays as pure as possible, giving you fresh and healthy drinking water. If you don’t change the filter then particles will build up and can seep back into the water which can cause breakage. By changing the filter:
- It removes limescale, magnesium and particles.
- It removes lead, protozoan cysts and organic compound.
- It reduces chlorine taste.
- It reduces sediment to 1 micron.
HOW TO CHANGE THE FILTER ON A BOILING WATER TAP?
- Isolate the water supply.
- Turn the power off to the boiler.
- Place a bowl under the filter and turn it clockwise to release it.
- Dispose of the filter and replace it with the new one, by turning it tightly into place.
- Turn on the water supply and power.
