This is not as complicated as you may think. As with choosing your water cooler supplier you should always ask how others install their hot water dispensers! We spare no expense in making sure we give you a safe, reliable & discreet installation. We use the best kit, our technicians are highly trained (as well as smiley & polite) & we try hard to ensure the water connection & pipe work are neat & tidy. We fit a number of safety devices as standard. So another question for a potential supplier: “Do you fit a water block, a reset, a double check valve & a pressure restricting valve?” Very many companies don’t. We do - always. We also make very little mess & tidy up thoroughly when we’ve finished.
All we need is to find a drinking water supply. Any size pipe will do. It can be copper, plastic or steel. The wall mounted INSTANT models need to have a simple overflow pipe and so are normally installed above or close to a sink to make this easy. If you’re unsure what you’ve got (it can be confusing) we are very happy to drop in & take a look. Our technicians have seen most things before & will clearly explain (in plain English) how they would connect you up! Either call us or ‘Click here’ for a FREE SITE VISIT
All except the INSTANT 28 countertop model (this one’s happy with a normal 13amp socket) need to be wired into their own 30amp ‘fused spur’. Sorry but we can’t supply these. Normally your local ‘sparky’ will oblige and we can talk to him if this will help. They are not expensive to install.
Here’s the terminology explained – sorry, but some people like it.
We fit this between your water supply & the water cooler. In the unlikely event that the pipe work fails or your machine is badly damaged this will shut off the water.
This prevents any problems with your water cooler should your water supplier have a burst water main or be digging up the road.
This will also protect the water cooler should your water pressure rise for some reason. It does happen.
