What is a chilled water tap?
A chilled water tap looks like any kitchen tap, with its own cooling unit hidden in the cupboard under the sink. Mains water is filtered first, then chilled to 8–12°C, so a cold glass pours straight from the tap.
The hot and cold water you wash up with comes from the mains, unfiltered.

Everyday life
Why choose an instant cold water tap?
Because a cold glass of filtered water becomes as simple as turning on the tap.
For families
Calmer school mornings. The kids fill their own bottles at the sink with water that's already cold and filtered. Then everyone heads out the door.
For entertaining
Easy hosting. Your guests sit down to a jug of chilled water already on the table. Refill it from the tap between courses, and the conversation never has to pause.
For offices
A better break room. After a long meeting, everyone heads to the kitchen for a refreshing glass, chilled and filtered. It suits a team of about 15–20 people.

How it works
How does an Alia chilled water tap work?
A chilled water tap works in four stages.
-
The journey starts at the filter in your cupboard. It holds back fine grit and reduces chlorine taste and smell.
-
Next, the cooling unit brings the filtered water down to 8–12°C.
-
On the X51, a touch of the panel pours it. On the 4 in 1, it's the handle.
-
The same filter feeds the heating unit, which you can set between 35°C and 98°C. Every boiling tap has a child lock.
Installation and ownership
Chilled water tap installation, filters and warranty
Here's what your kitchen needs before installing an Alia chilled water tap. Your plumber can confirm the space and water connections, and an electrician the powerpoints.
-
Space required
500mm wide, 580mm deep and 450mm high in the cupboard below. The all-in-one X51 needs 700mm of width.
-
Powerpoints
The 4 in 1 needs two; each X51 needs three
-
Water connections
Your plumber joins the tap to the hot and cold pipes already under your sink. A pressure limiting valve, set to 500 kPa, comes in the box.
Powerpoints needed, by model
Each unit needs its own standard powerpoint in the cupboard under your sink.

Questions
Chilled water tap FAQs
Still deciding? Call (03) 9219 0189 or compare taps in our tap selector.
Is a chilled water tap also a filtered water tap?
Yes. Alia chilled water taps pass mains water through an F5000L filter cartridge before it is chilled, so the chilled drinking water is filtered. The hot and cold water you wash up with comes straight from the mains and skips the filter.
Are these also filtered water taps?
Yes, the water is filtered before it's chilled. Only the everyday hot and cold skips the filter.
How cold does an instant chilled water tap get?
An Alia instant chilled water tap pours filtered water at 8–12 °C. On the 4-in-1 and X51 boiling and chilled models, the Chilled Stream unit produces 2.5 to 3 L of chilled water an hour.
Is a chilled drinking water tap better than bottled water?
A chilled drinking water tap gives you filtered water at 8–12 °C whenever you want it, with no bottles to buy, carry or recycle. The water comes from your mains and passes through the F5000L filter cartridge before it is chilled.
Can a chilled water tap pour boiling water too?
Yes. The Alia 4-in-1 and X51 boiling and chilled water taps pour filtered chilled water at 8–12 °C and filtered boiling water at any setting from 35 °C to 98 °C, up to 1.6 L at a time. The boiling water has a child lock.
How often does a chilled water tap filter need replacing?
Replace the F5000L filter cartridge every 8–12 months on average use. It is rated to 10,000 L, and a new F5000L filter cartridge is $150 including GST.
Can I add chilled water to my Alia boiling water tap?
Yes. If you have an Alia 4 in 1 or X51 boiling water tap, we can fit a chilling unit under your sink. Upgrades are arranged by phone, so call our team on (03) 9219 0189.
Can I install a chilled water tap in an apartment?
It can, if the cupboard below has the space and powerpoints listed above. It must be fitted by a licensed plumber.
How much does a chilled water tap cost in Australia?
Alia chilled water taps start at $2,500 for the 4-in-1 Instant Boiling and Chilled Filtered Water Tap. The X51 Instant Boiling and Chilled Filtered Water Tap is from $3,000, and the X51 with sparkling water is from $3,850. A replacement F5000L filter cartridge is $150 including GST.
Who installs an instant cold water tap?
A licensed plumber must install an Alia instant cold water tap. You can use your own plumber or find an authorised installer on our installers page. A licensed electrician adds any extra powerpoints the cupboard under your sink needs.
How much does a cold water tap cost to run?
The running costs are the electricity for the chilling unit under your sink and a new F5000L filter cartridge, which is $150 including GST and lasts 8–12 months on average use. Electricity use depends on how much chilled water you pour and on your tariff.
