Keeping It Running

Maintenance of Boiling Water Taps

Keeping your boiling water tap in great condition is simple. Here are a few tips to help get you started.

Clean the nozzle regularly

Wipe the spout with a damp cloth to remove limescale build up.

Replace your water filter

If your tap has a filter, replace it as recommended, usually every 6 to 12 months, to maintain water quality, taste and purity.

Descale when needed

In hard water areas, descaling your tap every few months can prevent build up and long-term issues.

Check for leaks or drips

A quick look under the sink now and then can help you catch small issues early.

Don't force the handle

If the tap feels stiff, it may need servicing. Forcing it can cause damage.

By following these simple steps, you'll keep your boiling water tap running efficiently and safely for years to come. If you're ever unsure, we're here to help with expert advice.
