Quooker - The tap that does it all

Instant boiling water, effortless convenience, and safety you can trust.

At Hydroworks, we’ve recommended Quooker for years — not because it’s fashionable or flashy, but because it’s genuinely the best and safest boiling-water system on the market.

We’re an authorised Quooker dealer, and between my own home, my mum’s kitchen, and hundreds of customer installations, I can say this with absolute confidence:

A Quooker isn’t a luxury. It’s a life upgrade.

Why we recommend and install Quooker

“I never realised how much boiling water I would use, until I installed a Quooker in my own home. Now that it’s instantly available, I use it constantly — tea, cooking, rinsing, sterilising… everything.

My turning point was my mum.

She’s wonderful, but bless her, she has an unfortunate habit of burning herself on anything, no matter how careful she is. We were at a friend’s home when she used their Quooker tap to make a tea. She accidentally got the aerated boiling water on her hand and I braced myself for the usual skin-blistering damage.

But… nothing.

She said “ouch”, pulled her hand back, rubbed it — and that was it. No injury, no burn, nothing.

That patented aerated-flow safety system is unique to Quooker, and it makes all the difference. I knew then that if it was safe for my mum, it would be safe for my kids, and for our customers too.

That’s why we only install Quooker. Nothing else comes close."

...Laurence Willis, Managing Director, Hydroworks

Some other super important reasons we rely on Quooker:

There are plenty of boiling-water taps out there, but only one that meets our standards on:

• Safety
  
  

• Reliability
  
  

• Performance
  
  

• Running costs
  
  

• Ease of use
  
  

• Long-term durability
  
  

And when you’re installing something that dispenses 100°C water at the touch of a button, you want the very best.

Your life is about to get so much easier — and more efficient too.

The Real Benefits of a Quooker Tap

A Quooker tap gives you 100°C boiling water instantly — but it’s so much more than that. Here’s why so many Hydroworks customers wouldn’t live without theirs:

1. Unbeatable Convenience

Boiling water, instantly.

No kettles, no waiting, no clutter.

It changes how you cook, how you clean, and how you make a cup of tea.

2. True Energy Efficiency

Quooker’s patented stainless-steel vacuum tank stores water at 108°C, meaning the system only uses the energy it needs — far less than repeatedly heating and cooling a kettle.

3. Saves Space & Streamlines Your Kitchen

No kettle. No clutter.

Just a single elegant tap doing all the work.

4. Industry-Leading Safety

This is the bit I love:

• Aerated boiling water helps prevent burns.
  
  

• A childproof handle stops accidental activation.
  
  

• The Flex model also stops dispensing boiling water when the pull-out hose is extended.

No other boiling-water tap offers this combination.

5. Cleaner, Better-Tasting Water

Boiling water kills bacteria — but Quooker goes further.

With chilled filtered and sparkling options, plus hot and cold from the same tap, you get cleaner, fresher water all day long.

And yes — Quooker is the only brand that can deliver boiling, hot, cold, chilled filtered and sparkling water from a single tap with a pull-out hose.

6. Built to Last

Quooker is the only company that designs, engineers, manufactures, markets, sells, and services its taps entirely in-house.

Over 85 patents protect their technology — nobody else can copy it.

This is why your running costs stay low and your tap stays reliable for years.

How We Help you choose the right Quooker system

Choosing a Quooker should feel exciting, not overwhelming — and that’s exactly how we make it.

We’ll guide you through each step so you end up with the perfect system for your kitchen, your lifestyle, and your budget.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Step 1 – Choosing the Right Tank

Every home is different, so we start with the heart of the system: the tank.

We’ll look at your hot-water system, how your kitchen is used, and the space available under the sink. From there, we’ll recommend the tank that will give you the very best performance.

Detailed Tank Explanation

Choosing the right tank is the most important part of selecting your Quooker system. Every home has different pressures, pipework, and hot-water arrangements — so here’s how we work out the perfect option for you.

---

Important Installation Considerations:

Before we choose the tank, we check that your home meets Quooker’s installation requirements:

• Minimum cold-water pressure: 2 bar
  
  

• Maximum cold-water pressure: 5 bar
  
  

• Mains water pH: 6.5–9.5
  
  

• Power socket: 13A required
  
  

• Shared sockets: Your Pro3 tank can share a plug socket with another appliance.  However, if your Quooker tank is a Combi or Combi+, it cannot share a single socket with another appliance, and in this case we strongly recommend using the Quooker Powerswitch.

  • Important:
    
    The Powerswitch cannot be used with a Combi/Combi+ & CUBE combination, so this setup will require each Quooker system to have its own dedicated 13A socket.
    
    

• Pipework requirements:

  • PRO3: Hot and cold feeds must be within 500mm of the tank
    
    

  • COMBI: Only a cold-water feed needed
    

  • COMBI+: A hot and cold-water feed needed
    
    

  • Gravity-fed systems:
    If you have a loft tank feeding a hot-water cylinder, Quooker recommend using the COMBI+ tank.

     

These checks take seconds, but they make sure everything works exactly as it should.

---

Which Hot Water System Do You Have?

The tank you need is mostly determined by how your current hot water arrives at your kitchen tap. 

Here’s how to tell:

1️⃣ Do you wait ages for hot water to reach your kitchen?

 If yes, you will likely benefit from the COMBI+ tank.

What the COMBI+ does

• It produces hot water instantly by mixing mains cold water with boiling water from the tank.
  
  

• It keeps doing this until your main hot water feed reaches the kitchen.
  
  

• Once your existing hot system catches up, the COMBI+ simply refills and reheats.
  
  

This gives you instant hot water and instant boiling water from a single tank. 

Important:

The COMBI+ only works with unvented cylinders or combination boilers.

It is not compatible with gravity-fed hot-water systems.

2️⃣ Do you have a gravity-fed hot water system?

 (Cold water tank in the loft feeding a hot cylinder)

 If so, the best option is the COMBI tank.

 It’s designed specifically to work with low-pressure, gravity-fed systems and gives you both hot water and boiling water from a single cold feed.

3️⃣ Do you have good hot water pressure already?

(Combination boiler or unvented hot water cylinder)

If your hot water reaches the kitchen quickly and reliably, the PRO3 tank is the perfect choice.

 It is compact, efficient, and provides all the boiling water you need without altering your existing hot-water delivery.

Step 2 – Picking Your Perfect Tap

Once the tank is sorted, we help you choose the tap you love.

Whether you want a classic look, a contemporary finish, or the incredibly popular Flex pull-out hose, we’ll guide you through the options — always with practicality, safety, and your kitchen style in mind.

(Tap comparisons and finishes are also shown below.)

Step 3 - Optional Accessories

Next, we look at the extras that make your Quooker even more brilliant.

This can include:

• Filtered drinking water
  
  

• Chilled and sparkling water via the CUBE
  
  

• Matching soap dispensers
  
  

• Scale protection options

Nothing is pushed — we simply help you explore what’s possible.

Step 4 - Clear, Simple Pricing

Once you’ve chosen your setup, we put together your Quooker package price.

Product prices are set by Quooker nationally, so you’ll always get the correct, consistent pricing — and you can also view these directly on both their, and our website here.

Our Hydroworks installation pricing is intentionally simple and fair:

• FREE installation when fitted at the same time as a Hydroworks water softener (our engineer is already there, so we don’t charge twice).
  
  

• £99 + VAT for a straightforward standalone Quooker installation.
  
  

• £145 + VAT for more complex installations or when multiple items are being fitted, such as adding a Quooker CUBE for chilled and sparkling water.

No surprises. No hidden extras. Just a job done properly.

Step 5 – Protecting your Quooker from limescale

This is the most important part.

Hard water is incredibly damaging to all boiling-water systems — and Quooker is no exception.

To keep your tap performing perfectly and to protect the tank from scale build-up, we’ll talk through the best limescale-protection option for your home.

In most cases, a water softener is the gold standard.  But, only two brands of softeners are endorsed and permitted on a Quooker system - Harvey and Kinetico.

A water softener keeps your Quooker running efficiently, silently, and with minimal servicing — a genuinely long-term investment.

What your quooker installation could look like

Every kitchen is different, and the beauty of a Quooker system is that it can fit neatly into almost any space — even really tight ones.

In fact, in the video just below, you’ll see an installation where the cupboard space was extremely limited, yet everything still fitted perfectly with room to spare. That’s the advantage of Quooker’s clever design and our careful planning.

We also talk you through the installation, showing you how the system works.

This customer chose:

• The Quooker PRO7 tank (the same size as the COMBI+), ideal for a busy family kitchen
  
  

• A Quooker CUBE for chilled filtered and sparkling water
  
  

• The Flex tap in polished chrome, still one of the most popular choices thanks to its pull-out hose and exceptional safety features

The final result is a clean, elegant, highly functional setup that transforms how the kitchen feels and works every single day — all tucked neatly into the space available.

Step 1 – SELECT YOUR TANK

Important installation considerations:

• Minimum Water Pressure:  2 bar on your cold water supply
  
  
• Maximum mains water pressure:  5 bar
  
  
• Mains Water pH: 6.5 - 9.5.
  
  
• Power Socket Required:  13A 
  
  
• If installing the Quooker onto a single socket that is shared with any other devices, it is recommended that the Quooker Powerswitch is used.  (Important Note:  The Power switch is incompatible with the PRO7 when used with a CUBE.  If a PRO7 is used with a CUBE, then a dedicated 13amp socket will be required).
  
  
• If selecting either the Pro3 or Pro7 tanks, hot & cold water feeds need to be within 500mm of the tank. If selecting the Combi, just a cold feed is required.
  
  
• If you have a loft tank system (gravity-fed hot water), the Quooker recommendation is installing the Combi tank.

The next part of Step 1 is to think about your hot water system.

• Do you wait a long time for your hot tap in the kitchen to give hot water?
  
  If you are, you would very likely benefit from choosing the Combi+ tank, which conveniently supplies hot water and instantaneous boiling water together.
  
  The Combi+ tank works by initially producing hot water from the cold cold mains and mixing it with boiling water, until your hot water from your current hot water system feeds through.  At that point, your main hot water takes over and your Combi refills and reheats.
  
  Important point:  The Combi+ tank will not work with gravity fed systems - only combination boilers or unvented hot water cylinders.

 

• Do you have a gravity fed hot water system?
  
  If you have a gravity fed hot water system (cold water storage tank in the loft, feeding a hot water cylinder), then you will need the Combi Tank.
• Mains fed hot water (Combination boiler or unvented hot water cylinder)
  
  If your hot water delivery time at your kitchen sink is not of concern to you, then the Pro3 Tank is the perfect solution for your home.

  

These are the three tanks to choose from

Helpful Tank Information:

PRO3
- Diameter:  153mm
- Height:  467mm
- Total Height Requirement:  550mm 

Combi and Combi+
- Diameter:  200mm
- Height:  490mm
- Total Height Requirement: 580mm

How does the tank work?

Water is stored in a highly pressurised, vacuum-sealed, stainless steel tank at 108°C.  The water in the tank is held under pressure in a patented high vacuum installation that prevents heat escaping from the tank.

The Quooker has a total standby power consumption of just 10 Watts, which equals approximately 3p per day and 1p per litre thereafter, dependent on your energy tariff.

The Quooker is the only system on the market with a patented HiTAC filter that filters all boiling water upon delivery.

Step 2 – choose your tap

A Quooker Boiling Water system consists of a kitchen tap on your worktop, and a tank in your kitchen cupboard. 

If you wanted cold and sparkling water, that is now an option with the CUBE, a separate accessory connecting to the main Quooker boiling water system.

There are various tap styles and finishes for you to choose from.

The most popular is the 3-in-1 taps that deliver hot, cold, and boiling water.   

We have noted a growing trend for separate single boiling water-only taps, which means your main kitchen tap remains unchanged.  This prevents any possible confusion regarding which tap to use for boiling water.

The separate tap is also very popular in commercial offices, such as office blocks.  The separate boiling-water tap can be offset to one side of the sink or even over its own dedicated circular sink or trendy counter top drain. 

A good place to start is to have a look at how easy it is to use the Quooker tap:

Quooker History

Like Hydroworks, Quooker is a family-run business, and also like ourselves, Quooker has a history that goes back to the very beginning of its industry.

Quooker developed the very first boiling water tap, which still is the only true 100°C boiling water tap.

Watch the video of their boiling water journey here and see why, when you choose Quooker, you are not just choosing a boiling water tap but the best.
